The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker
2.0
Honestly... reading this book was a waste of time. First the author spends 90% of the book describing the issue and then all of a sudden everything is fixed?? And she doesn’t even give an explanation for it. She just throws in an ‘inspiring message’ at the end about daring to dream and that’s it. ‘No one knows what cured the disease but hey, everyone is happy!’ is the vibe I’m getting here.
One thing I did like was her writing style. It made it bearable for me to read the entire thing, which I, sadly, regret. But I’ve read other people’s reviews that praise her dreamy way of writing and I agree that it indeed completes the setting of the story. This book goes beyond the main plot, which I like, but it could have been better developed. This book felt unfinished in a wrong way and in that case I usually don’t give very high ratings.
