Post by Joan_1990 »

This book somewhat related to the situation of my son right now. Because we are separated with his father. He lives with his father when he was only 2 yrs old young boy. Because i have to work to sustain our daily needs. From that time until now he is struggling on how to live with a broken family ;( ..it really brokes my heart seeing him suffering a lot of things. How he can live without me on his side.But a mother i've tried my very best to make him feel that i will always be at his side. matter what. He is going thru a lot. We have a scheduled to follow weekdays he is on his father side. Weekends he will be at my side.I hope & pray that this opportunity could help me to have an extra money that i can buy whatever he needs and to spend quality time with him.

Thanks for having me here!
God bless!

I have only just started The Dream Keepers and already agree with this review! The writing is indeed immersive and unique - I cannot think of a better, more accurate, description. The emotional nature of the children’s journey becomes apparent early in the book and I very much look forward to continuing.

Thanks for review the book is really good. As I read the part on of the book and enjoy the fun of the story. The fine part is where Thatcher enjoyed the bed and hate the morning wake up due to her deep mysterious dreams of night.

This sounds like a coming-of-age story. I love when there is character development in a book. I think I'll be checking this one out. Thank you for the review.

Good review. I read the sample and you are right about the characters feeling real. It is very easy to put yourself in their shoes and see through their eyes. I can't wait to read more.

Thanks for the review. The story seems interesting enough though I don't understand how the dream fits into it all. Hope to be able to read it when I get enough time.

I'm glad you had a great experience with this book! I like reading books where the character develops and familial dynamics change, so I think I will definitely enjoy The Dream Keepers! Characters that one can relate to is definitely a good indicator of a great story.

I like the books where the character growth is placed at the centre. It has been a while since I read something in YA genre. This seems good.

Awesome review! I also agree that it was cool to show your emotions. It makes your book reviews more unique. The book seems nice book that will explain the importance of life. I only read a few pages.

This isn't really my type of book. I tire of socio-political issues that seemingly have no remedy and merely get rehashed over and over. Still, kudos to the author on getting a great review, and I hope others enjoy.

This isn't the sort of book I usually read but it still sounds interesting, especially Star and her dreams. If the writing really is as good as you say, I'll probably have to give it a chance. Thank you for the insightful review.
