Readability: 4/5
Plot: 3/5
Recommend: No

Alice has been dreaming of Max for as long as she can remember. He's the perfect guy for her; he's kind, funny, and incredibly handsome. The only problem is that he isn't real... or is he?

At first, I thought I was going to give this book 3 stars because of how unlikeable Alice was to me. I didn't think she was likable because she was so incredibly attached to her dreams, but could be hypocritical at times concerning said dreams.

But I do understand that the attachment was kind of the point of the book.

I realized this wasn't 3 star book because I actually liked Max and Oliver, and later, the love between Max and Alice.

Another thing I dislike is

how perfect everything at the end was. Alice and Max are together. Oliver and Sophie are together. Celeste doesn't hate Alice, and she is dating a new guy. There were no real, negative consequences of anything that happened in this book. I know this might sound weird, but the conclusion was just too cookie-cutter perfect for me.

I thought I would absolutely love this book, but instead, I was a little disappointed. There are better romances out there.

Coming back a few months later, I've decided to bump this down to a three star read. Every time I think about this book and this concept, I only think of the negative parts. So no, the characters/romances I liked cannot, and do not, save this from being a three star book.
