Alice from dream to dream


After moving back to Ohio, Alice is stuck sharing a bedroom with her brother, and worse, sharing his dreams! The bright spot in her life is her best friend, Jamie, but there's more history between their families than Alice realized, and there are secrets buried deep in their small town that only she’ll be able to explore...but only in her dreams!

Good morning, good evening or good night everyone! I hope your day is going amazing so far! Today I have a graphic novel review, that I actually quite enjoyed.

 

Alice from dream to dream is a GN with a really interesting plot. The fact that she could jump onto everyone's dreams was such a great story and I thought it had a lot of potential.

 

I also really liked the background story or the moral of the book, the fact that she could forgive and the relationship that she has with Jaime was so cute!

 

Something that I noticed that I thought was so great was the fact that she reached out for help for dr. Snow, I find that often in books or TV shows the main characters shallow all of their problems when asking for help to an adult/professional is what everyone should do. Reaching out for help is absolutely fine and that should be shown more.

 

It is also such a relatable story, I feel like most people could see themselves reflected into Alice, she is going through a hard time at school, financially, she has to sleep with her brother because there is no other room available and she has been transferred to another city because of her father job. It is so important to be able to feel the characters because probably what they are going through is something that you know and have experienced.

 

THIS NEXT PART CONTAIN SPOILERS!!!

 

If I had to change something about this book would be the fact that Taisha was forgiven too fast and too easily, obviously is really important to learn and be able to forgive but the fact that they came to being friends after everything that Taisha did and how bad she behaved and treated Alice was just not okay.

 

With all being said, I gave this book a solid

4.5/5⭐️
