Gone by Lisa McMann
3.0

This is a satisfying conclusion to the Dream Catcher trilogy - about a teenage girl who can enter (often unwillingly) the dreams of the people sleeping in her presence. It's the summer after high school graduation, and Janie finds herself at a crossroads. She's torn between her love for her boyfriend Cabe, and a desire to isolate herself from other people so that she can sleep soundly at night and not face a future of blindness (the curse that plagues other dream catchers who use their power). Then a stranger from the past comes unexpectedly into her life, shaking Janey's views of herself, her mother and her choices to the core.

In addition to learning about the father that she's never met, Janie finds a healthy way to cope with her mother's alcoholism.
