Review: INTRIGUING BUT CHAOTIC
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 11 21, 2011
The Dream by Maria Savva was original but chaotic. This novel was all over the place. It was intriguing and suspenseful, but also confusing and choppy. This story didn't flow very well. Halfway through the novel, Savva completely changes the rules. It seemed like she needed a way to resolve things so she just added a magical trip through time, but it was forced and perplexing. I was also surprised because this novel wasn't very romantic. I was expecting a phenomenal love story, but I didn't find one. There were quite a few different people in Lynne's life throughout the course of this novel, but we didn't really get to see any of the relationships develop from beginning to end. There wasn't a guy to root for until the very end of this novel, and that was disappointing. The one relationship I would have loved to see more of began right when the novel ended.I enjoyed the overall theme of this novel; it's all about finding your right path. I also thought the concept for this novel was extremely cool. Unfortunately, it was executed poorly.I gave The Dream by Maria Savva 2 STARS (2.5 STARS). Most people have rated this novel really high. I am in the minority on this one, but it just didn't do it for me.-XOXOREADING, EATING AND DREAMINGFOR MORE REVIEWS CHECK OUT MY BLOG ON BLOGSPOT: READING, EATING & DREAMING I WAS BLAIR WALDORF
