Dreamology

Love is a dream. Then you wake up.

For as long as Alice can remember, she has dreamed about a boy named Max. They have gone on countless adventures in her dreams. But only in her dreams, because Max isn’t real.

Or so Alice thought, until she walks into class on her first day at a new school and sees him sitting there. But as Alice gets to know him, she finds out that Real Max is nothing like Dream Max, and he has a whole life that she isn’t part of.

But when their dreams start to bleed into their waking hours, they realize that they might have to put an end to a lifetime of dreaming about each other. But when you fall in love in your dreams, can reality ever be enough?

Dreamology was a really quick and enjoyable read. I really enjoyed the concept that the author came up with and became infatuated with Max and Alice’s relationship. I loved the switch between the real world and the dream world, and how Max acted differently in each world.

I adored all the characters and found that it was almost impossible to dislike any of them. I loved care-free Oliver and Sophie, who was an amazing friend to Alice, even though they lived really far away. I even thought that Celeste who, in any other book, might have been “the mean girl”, was a very friendly and warm-hearted character.

The writing of this book has to be commended . It was easy to read and captivating at the same time. It made for excellent world-building, especially in the dreams. Max and Alice’s adventures were perfectly described.

I did feel as if Max and Alice went through all the trouble to find out how to stop the dream bleeding and then it ended up being really simple. Although the ending was slightly rushed, it was still a great conclusion to the story, and immediately left me hoping for a sequel.

In conclusion Dreamology is perfect for anyone who loves to daydream and is looking for a quirky romance.
