I was extremely intrigued by the premise of this book and the use of dreams. That is honestly what carried this book for me. I felt like it was easy to jump into and there wasn't excessive world building. At times it felt immature/cringe. (view spoiler) To the point that I almost DNF'd around 60%. Thankfully, it was a quick read and I was able to finish it up in one afternoon. I'm left somewhat curious about book 2 because I want to see how the dream connections will be used to further the story. Otherwise, my threshold for cringe tolerance will be much lower.

I’ll start with the downside the end of the book is where it really got me invested. The upside was I loved Marlak and Astra. It just ended so abruptly and now I have to see if I can read the next book. I’m invested now.
