I was really excited for The Vault of Dreamers, because I love school settings, and the reality TV angle boosted my interest even more. Thankfully, it didn't disappoint! It does kind of drift into weird territory in the middle, and I was worried for a few chapters, but then that ending happened. I just couldn't believe it! I love unexpected, unhappy endings, where the author takes a risk! My mind did conjure up some crazy twist, which was kind of right, but not really, but it ultimately ended with a typical YA Dystopian ending. This is not that! And I'm glad! It makes it stand out, and I was pretty disturbed by it.
A lot happens in The Vault of Dreamers, but I don't want to talk about it all for fear of spoiling something! You think the story is going in one direction, then something happens, and you think maybe not, and then it goes somewhere else entirely! It's impossible to tell who to trust when everyone is competing for rankings, even the school staff want drama to occur! There was a point where I didn't even trust Rosie! Totally mind boggling! I will say that I was a bit disappointed in the secret the school is hiding. It wasn't nearly as sinister as I was hoping, it was mostly just creepy.
