Blurb: What would you do if you could see other people’s dreams? If you could watch their hidden fantasies and uncover their deepest, darkest secrets…without them ever knowing?

Sara Barnes is about to find out. She thought that all she had to worry about was final exams, Christmas shopping and deciding whether she likes the cute freshman in the next dorm who’s got a crush on her.

But when she starts seeing dreams that aren’t hers, she learns more than she ever wanted to know about her friends, her classmates…and a strange, terrifying man whose dreams could get Sara killed.

Review: Honestly, this was quite interesting however, the only things I didn’t like about it was that I couldn’t really connect to their characters and the protagonist fell in love so fast. Other than that, I was very interested in how everything turned out. I just wish the relationship had taken longer before they started saying I love you.

That, to me, is just very unrealistic and takes away from an otherwise intriguing tale. The mystery and dreams made up for what it lacked, not too much dialogue, a good bit of description but not enough that it felt like filler.

While I wouldn’t heavily recommend this book, I wouldn’t keep someone from reading it, just warn them about the things I mentioned.

I have somewhat of a desire to go on to the next book but, I have no idea what the next book would be about from how this ended. This one didn’t end on a cliff-hanger and all my questions, except for two, are all answered and I have a feeling that my two questions aren’t really going to be answered.

I’m wary of going on because this one would be fine as a stand alone and sure, there are some series that are stand alones in and of themselves, one particular series I know of can be, but I don’t know how I would feel.

I would say go ahead and read, it really is good but, keep in mind that it’s very fast paced in the relationship area.

Thank you for reading my review.
