Summary from Goodreads:
I love the way Gier writes her protagonists. They’re spunky and fun but seem totally realistic. Liv was great to read about. I could totally get on board with how she was annoyed at her mother for dragging her to a new country and making her live with strangers. I could even get on board with how quickly Liv jumped at the chance to hang out the boys even though weird things are going on. She’s bored with her life so why not take a chance to make it more exciting even if she’s not totally convinced that demons exist?
I really appreciated how Gier kept the story light. I didn’t know much about the story so I was a bit hesitant when the demon came up. I don’t like reading those types of books so I was getting worried. Gier really managed to keep the story from being too dark and scary. The big twist was interesting. I didn’t see it coming so I’ll be interested in seeing how things turn out in future installments.
The dream world was pretty awesome. I loved the idea that everyone’s dreams are bit connected. It was cool to see Liv jump into other people’s dreams and learn more about them. I really want to go to a dream world like this now and see what everyone’s door looks like!
The bottom line? Interesting mystery, great protagonist, and fun story. What’s not to like about that?
