Book Review: Dream

20654232

Title: Dream

Author: Kyra Selby

Genre: YA romance


Book Blurb: 
The last thing seventeen-year-old Ava Evans needed was boy trouble. Moving from the bustling New York City to a small town in Oklahoma, all Ava wanted was some peace. Not the glare of certain dark eyes. But this wasn’t just any typical teenage boy trouble. This was downright bizarre and though she would never admit it aloud, intriguing. 
And charming and popular and not too bad on the eyes. Yes, eighteen year-old Miles Greyson seemed to be your typical All-American boy, beloved by his many friends and the residents of the small town he lived in. And he got along with just about anyone and everyone. 
…Except Ava. Their first disastrous meeting ending in a bloody nose and a trip to the hospital leaves Ava thoroughly confused. Because Miles seemed to hate her even before all that. Upon first glance to be exact. 
Trying to navigate the nefarious world of high school with mean girls, new friends, and awkward unrequited crushes, Ava begins to slowly unravel the mystery that is Miles Greyson while doing her best not to get distracted by Miles himself. 
All the while Miles is unraveling her, leading them both to a startling revelation that changes everything. Impossible dreams, enchanting feelings, and the whisper of a magical wish..

Review:

Miles has been having dreams of Ava for literally four years. The dreams started when she was twelve, and he fourteen. They have never met before, so the day they meet, he becomes different. After they realize that they have mutual friends, the shock wears off and they become best friends, and are later inseparable.


What I wanted for this book was it to be more magical. The author doesn't even mention the dreams until the last 38 pages, and that makes me sort of confused. Although I think that if this book was longer, it definitely would have been better, because then she would have had a chance to talk more about the dreams. I really wanted to see the Ava and Mile's future and I felt that the epilogue should be part of the prologue, but I'm pretty happy with the ending. Overall, I enjoyed reading it and the writing was smooth with the exceptions of a few grammatical errors. I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to read a quick love story!
