A review by vonderbash
The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker

5.0

I received a copy of this book from a Goodreads giveaway.
First off, it’s so beautiful written and I adore the style. It reminded me of The Book Thief.
This was a trip to read in the time of COVID-19. It’s almost like the author predicted the future. Masks, quarantine, unexplained virus, full hospitals, sick doctors and nurses, people claiming it’s all a hoax, people acting like there’s no consequences to being contagious, people doing everything right and still getting sick.
It may seem weird to read something so similar to what’s happening in the world right now, but this story is beautiful, the characters are interesting, and there’s just enough mystery to suck you in.
