Sweet Dreams Are Made of Teeth by Richard Roberts
1.0
I received a free copy of this book via NetGalley and Crossroad Press in exchange for an honest review.
I think this book had a lot of potential. I loved the perspective of being told from the point of view of a nightmare, as it was really unique. The author did a great job of world building and describing he scenery. That's where the praise ends, unfortunately.
At first I cared about Fang and Self Loathing. However, as the book went on I really didn't care anymore. Their interactions were the same thing over, and over, and what I thought were redeeming qualities at first, ended up being toxic. The girlfriend thing was bizarre, as I feel there was never consent (especially with the muse). Then We have a love triangle that becomes a square which makes no sense. I still don't really know what the plot was.
Overall, I think this book had a great concept but the execution fell really flat.
