Strange the Dreamer and Why it Made me Dream
By 'dream', I mean 'sleep'
2.5 Stars
Hold your horses, people. Are we even reading the same book here? Is my copy missing something? Am I missing something literally everyone else has apparently noticed?
In another life, me and Strange the Dreamer could have been friends. In another life, I would have finished and absolutely loved it. But no. This is the life it is, and my heart is mesarthium when it comes to this book. Strange the Dreamer just wasn't my cup of tea, I guess. I was not shocked or blown away or enchanted. Moreover, I predicted the plot twist about a hundred pages before it happened. This book isn't good or bad. It's just meh. It's just there.
“Welcome to purgatory. Care for some soup?”
I've heard many good things about this book, a 4.4 on Goodreads, so, obviously, I came into it with the highest of high expectations. Nearly all my most trusted reviewers gave it either 4 or 5 stars, but between the bland characterization, plot that only came to fruition 90% into the book, boring description, and underdeveloped/insta love romance, I, unfortunately, cannot give Strange the Dreamer anything above two and a half stars.
