I'm going to start this off by saying that the concept was really cool and interesting and it's an awesome idea to explore.
But, I'm not the biggest fan of the execution.
I found the writing hard to follow, especially at the end of the book, and I was lost a few times. I had trouble understanding what was happening multiple times throughout this book. I get that a lot was happening, but it almost felt like too much was happening. I think that Reverie could have possibly been split into a duology.
I also just generally wasn't a fan of the writing style. I felt like there were too few commas which made some sentences really confusing to me.
Finally, I didn't love the characters that much. They were all sort of boring to me and I found I didn't care that much about them. Except Dean. I thought Dean was a really interesting character. He's probably the only character I really liked.
