Oh. My. Word. *sobbing* this was incredible. I have a short list of books that I will reread and this has been added to it! That is the highest compliment. I was enthralled from start to finish. I adored every second of this book. It took me for a ride and made me cry so hard. 10/10 recommend for anyone into a good love story. I also recommend this if you need a good cry (in the best possible way).
Hands down, my favorite read in recent years.
OF DREAMS AND ANGELS is writing, romance, devotion, imagination, inspiration, heartbreak, and growth at its very finest.
Joe, a successful numbers-and-logic sort of man, begins dreaming through the eyes of someone else—a woman, Claire—whom he slowly comes to know over the course of many, many unrestful nights. He’s the last person he’d expect to encounter this type of woo-woo stuff. But still, he can’t deny the gravity between himself and Claire. With some prodding from an unlikely friend, William, as well as his internal committee, aka “The Parliament,” Joe commits to finding her. The year ahead stretches him, fills him, blesses him, and wrecks him…bringing him to his knees in utter awe and affliction.
Morrison is an absolute master at his craft. His use of words—individually and en masse—is admirable, expansive, and evocative. I grew as both a human and a writer for reading his novel…a DEBUT, no less. He paints a vivid picture with stirring emotions, while also leaving room for the reader to imagine and feel on their own. The characters were relatable and easy to love. The plot was inventive, but so grounded. Joe, especially, is what I look for in a male lead: tender, reserved, “still waters run deep,” a little reclusive, yet open to possibility. His transformation and emergence was touching. And his internal committee was perhaps the most unique and warming approach to the inner voices at work between his (our) ears.
To explain the depths to which this story moved me would require exposing plot elements best (in my opinion) discovered as the author puts forth. Though I can say, I will forever be grateful for both the perspective and affirmation I acquired from OF DREAMS AND ANGELS. This will be my new go-to recommendation. It is an experience and a talent not to miss. A few paragraphs of my own commentary could not do it full justice.
