"Unfortunately, Dead to You by Lisa McMann was not as great as I’d hoped. The story starts with sixteen-year-old Ethan returning home after having been kidnapped when he was seven. Due to traumatic events, he can’t remember anything from…

Loved the book, was shocked at the ending. So wish there was a second book. I want to know what happened after he ran.

This book isn't my favorite. The cliffhanger was cruel at the end. However, the story was good. It was really slow paced. I wouldn't really recommend it. -Andy

When I read the blurb it kind of scared me, but it turned out to be a really great book.

I really enjoyed this book and the ending quite surprised me. I would really enjoy another book to go along with this one (perhaps a prequel? To know what it was like before he found his family).

INCREDIBLE. I love just about everything Lisa McMann writes, and this book did not disappoint. She writes her characters to be so relatable, so it's easy to get lost in the story. Plenty of drama, action, twists and turns, and even a…

I read this pretty quickly and I thought I wouldn't like it because the Wake trilogy was kinda weird, but I liked it. The ending was a little shocking, but not really because they hint to it all along. I loved the way the story was…

Pretty good. I felt it was slow at times, it wasn't a real page turner for me. The ending shocked me, though the idea was always in the back of my mind. I did not expect what happened though.

this book was well written but somewhat slow at times. the ending was completely unexpected, but overall it really gets you thinking about family and what it really means to people.

This book really grabs the reader however the last chapter makes you wish that you never picked it up because the way it ends ... Horrifying yet great

This book was so touching. So thought provoking. I couldn't imagine how i would feel if this happen to me. But Lisa McMann gives an absolutely believable tale of feelings from every family member. It is a sad story so be prepared. …

I really enjoyed this book. In fact I finished it in only a few hours. You really feel bad for the main character and how he tries so hard to remember and fit into his family. I love the way this book was written and how though you suspect…
