Publisher Description
Two girls with vastly different lives start to dream . . . dreams that blur reality with fiction, leaving them questioning their sanity.
“I was riveted by this gripping story about the line between dreams and reality, and what happens when that line becomes blurred.”—Jennifer E. Smith, author of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight
What if you could dream your way into a different life? What if you could choose to live that life forever?
Sloane is a straight-A student from a small coastal town.
Maggie is a glamorously independent up-and-coming actress in New York.
The two girls couldn’t be more different—except for one thing. At night, they dream they’re each other. They live each other’s lives, they know each other’s secrets. They each fall in love. But their two lives have never converged—until now.
Which life is just a dream? Which is real?
Eventually, they will have to figure out the answer, or risk spiraling into insanity. But for one girl, that means giving up everything—her life, her love, herself—just when she finally has something worth holding on to.
Customer Reviews
Mind boggling!
Great book! Very well written. Plot line, world building, character building are impeccable. It will blow you away! If you like movies like, A Beautiful Mind, Identity, Inception or other movies like that you will love this! Can't think of any books to compare this to, you have to read this.
*WARNING* you must be prepared to pay attention! Failure to do so will result in utter confusion. You've been warned! ;)
My Favorite Book of all Time.
The only book that I can read over and over. 🌻
Great Idea, Horrible Execution.
Reading the description for this book, I thought, “Wow! That sounds amazing! Cool idea!” So I downloaded the sample.
If I could say one thing about the book that struck me most more than anything, it was: This book swears a LOT. And it does!
As a writer, I know that it is possible to make a great book without cuss-words in it. Adding them in makes it a much nastier read, and it detracts from what you’re trying to say.
If you want to emphasize a point, don’t just throw in a couple of swearwords. That's stupid and unimaginative. If you’re trying to make a point, use clean, interesting words to create the idea you want to put into the reader’s mind. Vulgarity does not make up for creativity.
Plus, the book isn’t even written well! It’s very vague, swears a lot, and it seems like someone just crammed a bunch of words on a page and sent it off to the publisher. (Seriously, did this writer even have an editor?)
This is a classic case of an idea which is outstanding, imaginative, and captivating, but one which is executed in a way that makes you wonder how the author managed to make the a book with that good of an idea so terrible.
All-in-all, this book is a vulgar, vague, crude, and disgusting waste of time. Please don’t read it.
There are plenty of amazing books out there, but this is most certainly not among them.
I hope this review helped!
Sincerely,
K. A. Reid
