Dreamology

Description

For as long as Alice can remember, she has dreamed of Max. Every night since they were kids, they've met in their dreams, traveled the world, and fallen deliriously, hopelessly in love. Max is the boy of her dreams-and only her dreams. Because he doesn't exist in real life. Then Alice walks into class on her first day at a new school, and there he is. It turns out, though, that Real Max is nothing like Dream Max, and getting to know each other in reality isn't as perfect as Alice always hoped-especially when their dreams start to bleed troublingly into their waking hours. Soon, Alice and Max question not just their relationship, but their own sanity. The pair realize that the only way to fix things might be to put an end to a lifetime of dreaming about each other. But when you fall in love in your dreams, can reality ever be enough Whimsical, romantic, heartbreaking, and utterly original, Lucy Keating's debut novel will win readers' hearts, and is perfect for fans of Jennifer E. Smith and Stephanie Perkins.

Lucy Keating lives in Watertown, Massachusetts, with her tall smiley husband and short scruffy dog. She's been writing and editing teen romance for twelve years professionally, and for many years before that. In addition to writing, reading, and watching absolutely everything, Lucy enjoys baking, taking weekend road trips in beautiful New England, and re-writing pop songs in tribute to her dog, who is unappreciative. lucykeating.com Instagram: @lucy.keating Twitter: @lulutweeting
