Dream a Little Dream (The Silver Trilogy, #1)

by Kerstin Gier

A girl with a hatchet. Doors with lizard head knobs. Talking stone statues. Yes, Liv's dreams have been pretty weird lately. Especially the one where she's in a graveyard at night, watching four boys conduct dark magic rituals. The strangest part is that Liv recognises the boys in the dream. They're classmates from her new school in London. But what's really scaring Liv is that these dream boys seem to know things about her in the real world, things they couldn't possibly know - unless they actually are in her dreams? Luckily, Liv never could resist a mystery, and all four of those boys are pretty cute.

[Amber (The Literary Phoenix)]

DREAM A LITTLE DREAM is a delightful little story about a girl who finds herself wrapped up in her new classmates' demonic rituals that take place in their dreams and if that isn't enough of a hook to keep you reading, then there's no hope for you. This book is fun to read, with the same easy flow that's indicative of Gier's other work. While the relationship growth is a bit quick for my tastes, it's sweet and filled with metaphorical butterflies and hand holding, so that's adorable.

Honestly, this isn't the best book in the world, but I did like it. I enjoyed the experience of reading it, even though it didn't feel like the most compelling story. The dream world was interesting and I'm looking forward to exploring it more in the rest of the trilogy.

Initial Thoughts: Original concept; I definitely haven't read a book like this before. However, the rules of the game are confusing and the outcome was really unclear. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to believe or how this is leading into a sequel.
