Book 32 of 2025. We‘re watching the series, so I figured I would read the books first! I really enjoyed these! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Yes, I loved DREAM STATE. You will, too. @DoubledayBooks

Loved it. So good. I do feel like a reveal from the end of book 1 kind of got glossed over, Bri suddenly didn‘t care as much about it, maybe she didn‘t really make it make sense but the rest was good. It wasn‘t shocking, did not reinvent the genre, but it was lots of fun. More adventure/politics focussed than ACOTAR, more romance focussed than The Cruel Prince & a solid read if you like either of those.

The strength of the storytelling in this novel is the last third of the book. I had a hard time believing the beginning of the book- not really likeable characters and events that seemed like they came from left field. The setting and writing were enjoyable, and I‘m glad I pushed through to the end, but wasn‘t one of my favorites this year.
