[Melany]

Chapter 46
(view spoiler)[ it's crazy that Hennessy understands less about the dreaming things than Ronan does but I think it'll be really nice for Ronan to finally meet another dreamer (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 56
(view spoiler)[ I really like Declan and Jordan I think they're really cute together and I like that she scraped the painting off so she could do it in a second time so she would have an excuse to see him again (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 4
(view spoiler)[what could have made that painting that can keep dreamers dreams alive the sweetmetals. Bryde is really going to have to start giving up some answers because this is so much and there's so much that Ronan and Hennessy don't know and I feel they're in so much danger (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 12
(view spoiler)[ I'm pretty sure Bryde is a bad guy, I don't know what he wants but I don't like him and I can't imagine what he's doing is going to be good for Ronan or Hennessy clearly he wants Ronan because Ronan has a lot of this power he gets the nightwash way more than Hennessy does and he's been doing it forever I don't trust Bryde (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 19
(view spoiler)[ I like that they're finally getting to the point where like they're saving the lay lines but I still don't trust Bryde I kind of feel like he wants to kill people to save the planet He's one of those people you know (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 23
(view spoiler)[ I feel so bad for Declan he finally is starting to be happy and then Adam has to call him and Adam is just going to tell him the worst news I can tell (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 8
(view spoiler)[ I feel so bad for Declan watching his entire life just fall apart his family his everything and I don't even know what's happening to Ronan (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 21
(view spoiler)[ I don't like that all of this was Nathan's plan I don't even know how he got this powerful (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 27
(view spoiler)[ I can't believe Declan's mother shot him (hide spoiler)]

[Melany]

Chapter 35
(view spoiler)[ So Ronan was dreamt too? (hide spoiler)]

[Kira]

Chapter 1-12: (view spoiler)[This is a very interesting world the author has build up in this book. The dreamer and the dreamed both have some rules to follow. Finding out that Mathew was Ronan's dream absolutely shocked me. No wonder he is looking for a way to wake up a dreamed after the dreamer's death. I am curious to see how Hannesey would become a part of Ronan's life. The hunter is going to look for Ronan for sure, don't know what Byrde is up to and the role Adam would play in all of this would be a delight to read about (hide spoiler)]

[Kira]

Chapter 13-30: (view spoiler)[Oh my god Hennesey is a dreamer too and she has dreamed up not one, not two but six copies of herself, that's absolutely crazy. She needs the painting so that she can stop having the nightmares which result in these copies, understandable. Then there's Ronan, his mom was a dream too, I feel like my head is spinning with all this information. I can't wait for the two of them to finally meet, atleast they'd have someone to share their sorrows with. I am wondering who that woman might be who resembled Aurora Lynch. I also feel bad for Matthew every time his scene comes up, just remembering that he was a dreamed being (hide spoiler)]

[Kira]

Chapter 31-47: (view spoiler)[I can't even begin to understand Byrde's motivation for helping Ronan, it surely couldn't be out of the good of his heart like Adam pointed out. Adam is a visionary? He sure looked like one when he talked about having visions and seeing the future of the world. Ronan and Hennesey finally met! Learning about her painful past was difficult, no wonder she tries to kill herself but ends up creating a clone every time. Now that she and Ronan have one another, I am curious to see where it takes them. And when will Farooq Lane reach these two? (hide spoiler)]

[Kira]

Chapter 48-63: (view spoiler)[I don't know how I feel about Jordan and Declan, actually I am not entirely sure about the entire ethics of a living breathing dreamed being living as a human, so much is happening in this book, it is kinda difficult to keep track. It seems like Liliana could be the next visionary but Farooq Lane would have to rescue her first. Matthew is dealing with his own shit after finding out that he is not real and Ronan, oh sometimes I feel like he is really immature. (hide spoiler)]

[Kira]

Finished: (view spoiler)[What the hell even happened? Is there anyone in this book that hasn't dreamed up a clone of themselves. Ronan's mom and dad, Hennesey, even Ronan himself at one point. The forest Ronan dreamed of where he took Hennesey and the creatures that saved Matthew turned out to be so useful and Lace is a literal demon. I wonder how Ronan and Hennesey would save everyone from him. Liliana is such a strong visionary, it won't take long for her and Farooq Lane to track down Ronan now (hide spoiler)]

[Kira]

Starting book 2 now.

[Kira]

Chapter 1-6: (view spoiler)[The world is still shrouded in mystery and I am not really enjoying learning about ley lines or whatever. Ronan is not in a good shape and I feel like Bryde needs to open up more and be more forthcoming with information. It's not fair on Ronan and Hennesey to be kept in dark about what they must face. I feel bad for Matthew, he used to be such a happy guy but now can't seem to stop thinking about being a dream. I wonder what awaits him and Declan in LA. I hope they reunite with Jordan (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 7-13: (view spoiler)[Hmmm i liked the other dreamer Rhiannon just fine but I didn't expect the moderators to attack so soon, I was hoping to see more of her. Maybe she was saved somehow and the gunshot didn't kill her? I am wondering now if maybe Carmen and Ronan and Hennesey would actually come together some time to fight against other bad forces. I don't feel like Bryde is being completely honest here, he reveals just enough information to keep Ronan and Hennesey with him and he might have some nefarious motives imo (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 14-21: (view spoiler)[Carmen deciding to quit the moderators is the best fucking thing to happen and i feel like Bryde using Ronan and Hennesey to save the ley lines by going on an "industrial espionage", as quoted by Carmen, is what is going to make the prophecy come true. I guess Bryde won't know when to stop and that would bring destruction to the world. Them all teaming up to defeat Bryde seems like a possibility to be atm. Curious to see when they'd finally come face to face (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 22-29: (view spoiler)[So Adam can sense ley lines too and he observed that something is happening. The theory he came up with makes perfect sense to me and I do feel Bryde needs to be stopped, he is simply using Ronan and Hennesey at this point. I am glad that Jordan was able to make Matthew feel better, he was having such an identity crisis for so long. I am missing Carmen, I wonder what she and Liliana are upto. All the destruction these dreamers are upto would surely catch up with them soon (hide spoiler)]

Finished: (view spoiler)[What the hell kind of ending was that!!? It has left me with more questions that answers. Bryde turned out to be Ronan's dream, I am certain that was a twist no one could have seen coming. Ronan and Hennesey chose opposite sides to be on and I was impressed that Hennesey was able to shut down the ley lines. But then why did Ronan fell asleep and not Bryde? Shouldn't it have been the opposite. Jordan is awake too, does that mean Hennesey is gone? I am so confused and so curious to see what exactly has happened. Need to pick up the next book asap (hide spoiler)]

[Kira]

Will read the third book today.

[Kira]

Chapter 8: (view spoiler)[I am so curious to find out why Ronan isn't waking up even through the sweetmetal thing and I guess Matthew is simply awake because Ronan isn't technically dead. Poor Declan has to be the string to hold everything together and I feel really bad for the guy. Bryde is in jail now so I am wondering what his story would come up. Not even sure what is up with Hennesey and Jordan (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 18: (view spoiler)[Hennesey is so lost without Jordan but proud enough to not admit to it, such a shame. The moderators were shady since the start and I hope Carmen finds out their secret soon, I want to know why they are sleeping too. I understand why Matthew is so pissed at Declan, he virtually has no control over his own life Declan making him sleep anytime he wants. I am hoping Ronan wakes up soon tor right everything that has gone wrong (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 28: (view spoiler)[Yikes Declan’s mom was the sociopath and not hia dad? I had been so wrong about this one it is kind of amazing. Nathan not really being dead was a huge shock and I can’t imagine how Carmen must have felt upon finding this out. All the moderators being dreams themselves is kinda fucked up, they are all about killing the zeds who are responsible for creating them in the first place (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 42: (view spoiler)[What a brilliant turn of events. The one person being portrayed as a Zed since the start turned out to be a dream too. The Forest looks like played a role in giving Ronan the powers of dreaming. I feel really bad for Niall, he was the one who drew the short stick in all of this. Mor shot Declan but I want to believe she is not really the bad guy here and would help to defeat the enemy. (hide spoiler)]

Finished: (view spoiler)[Wow what a great end to an amazing series. I loved the big showdown in the dream between Nathan and Ronan. I also loved the way everything was resolved and there was a sort of happy ending for everyone involved in this trilogy. Declan and Jordan getting married was fitting, Ronan proposed to Adam and Hennesey is finally free of her nightmares, doing something she loves. Even Mor and Fenian found a sort of home at the farm taking care of the creatures in the barn (hide spoiler)]
