I’d like to start this review thanking the author for reaching out to me to give a review for this book! Please please please, link is in the beginning under the author’s name, go check out their tumblr and this book on Amazon (Linked here)! It was a quick paced, action packed, fun book. A lot of lore was written into this plot and the characters are what really make it enjoyable. Jory and her friends are young, anywhere from sixteen to twenty something, but they don’t give off an inexperienced vibe which, at my age, is a huge turn off now. These characters get thrown into a situation that is terrifying, harsh and fast paced. The way the author portrays their qualities is what kept me enthralled the entirety of this book and at each turn, there’s another danger and it was so enticing to see how they would deal with it.
I gave it a 4 out of 5. While I really really enjoyed a lot of components of this story, the only thing I would say is the resolution of Jory and her nightmare world felt a little generic and the nightmare creatures didn’t hold a lot of fear factor for me personally, but since those were my ONLY complaints, and those are more due to the fact that I read a lot within this genre, I think it deserves a high praise. It’s overall plot is pretty original, it was fast paced and at the characters are very enticing. I very much enjoyed this book!
