When I heard Jennster had self-published a YA book, I put it on my list of books to read (once I caught up with my TBR list) because I love Jennster. She’s fun and she’s funny and I’m a big believer in supporting BlogHer peeps – I never did get caught up on my TBR list but I did buy her book. And I did finally, after months and months, read it.
In Dreams was not like any other YA fantasy chick lit I’ve ever read. Really. Totally unusual plot – particularly toward the end. I mean it’s not a surprise for girls to fall for “dream boys” but… well… this dream boy was really a DREAM boy who was also real. Sort of. It’s complicated but also easy, once Kat figures out who he is. Of course that’s also when the drama begins.
The book needs an edit, like almost every self-published book I’ve ever read, but it was a quick, easy read … and Jennster is totally awesome.
*Update: I just noticed there appears to be an edited-this-year version (and I’ve had my copy for a very long time — so yay for edits!)
LOL- I love you! After a few “holy crap, EDIT THIS BOOK” comments from grown ups, I found a REAL editor and had her go through it for grammar twice. First time with her edits and then again after I implemented some changes. So the grammar is better- while the story remains the same (some would argue I need a serious story editor as well, but if I never put that book behind me, i’ll never move forward). 🙂
Thank you for taking the time to not only read my book, but to blog about it. I appreciate it. XOXOXOOXOXOX
