The Colors of Malent by Sam Inzerillo, Tim Adams

4.0

This book took me awhile to get into!! The main character, Alara, is a fourteen year-old girl, and because of this, the majority of the first third of the book sounded like a stereotypical middle-schooler "like, oh my god", etc!

However, once I made it past the first 100 pages, I honestly couldn't put it down! We learn that Alara is adopted, and that her dreams are becoming more and more vivid. As she learns more about them, it gets more and more confusing for her. Is our world real? Or is her dream-world real?

The biggest shock was the ending - I'm assuming there will be a sequel? It ends on a major cliffhanger! Although I won this copy, I'll certainly be buying the sequel!
