Description

Vibrantly offbeat and utterly original, Lucy Keatings debut novel combines the unconventional romance of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind with the sweetness and heart of Jenny Han.

For as long as Alice can remember, she has dreamed of Max. Together, they have traveled the world and fallen deliriously, hopelessly in love. Max is the boy of her dreamsand only her dreams. Because he doesnt exist.

But when Alice walks into class on her first day at a new school, there he is. Real Max is nothing like Dream Max. Hes stubborn and complicated. And he has a whole life Alice isnt a part of. Getting to know each other in reality isnt as perfect as Alice always hoped.

Alarmingly, when their dreams start to bleed into their waking hours, the pair realize that they might have to put an end to a lifetime of dreaming about each other. But when you fall in love in your dreams, can reality ever be enough

Reviews

"This is a sweet, quirky romance with appealing characters and loving descriptions of Boston landmarks...Keating is particularly good at capturing the surreal nature of dreams. Give this one to fans of Jenny Han and YA romance." -- School Library Journal

"A fun spin on contemporary romance." -- Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA)

"Alice is a fun, sarcastic heroine, and readers will be more than happy to join her on her journey both in and out of dreams." -- ALA Booklist

"This story of the ultimate meet-cute just gets cuter and cuter." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
