When we wake by Karen Healey

Sypnosis: 

Sixteen-year-old Tegan is just like every other girl living in 2027—she's happiest when playing the guitar, she's falling in love for the first time, and she's joining her friends to protest the wrongs of the world: environmental collapse, social discrimination, and political injustice.


But on what should have been the best day of Tegan's life, she dies—and wakes up a hundred years later, locked in a government facility with no idea what happened.



The future isn't all she had hoped it would be, and when appalling secrets come to light, Tegan must make a choice: Does she keep her head down and survive, or fight for a better world?



Award-winning author Karen Healey has created a haunting, cautionary tale of an inspiring protagonist living in a not-so-distant future that could easily be our own.



My Review -- 5/5 stars!
This book took me a while to read but it was totally worth it. This novel is fast-pacing at times but the author makes it go slow at the right amount of time.

The plot of this book is so unique that I loved the whole book and couldn't even think how would someone would come up with this creativity. 

There are a lot of characters that I loved in this book, but more specifically I loved Abdi. He is the boyfriend that is from the future. Hence named 'the future boyfriend Abdi'. I wish there was more of her previous boyfriend, Dalmar. The few pages that the relationship was shown was really cute.

The biggest thing was the plot. The plot twist in this book to me was....shocking. It wasn't exactly my 'most shaking' plot twist but its worth the wait for the plot twist. I actually suspected one of the characters (Don't worry I'm not to say who), to be the villain so I kind of spoiled myself.

Overall, this book was a perfect dystopian. Loved it. I can't wait to pick up the next book.
