Releases from Speak/Penguin on January 9th, 2014
From Goodreads:
In the land of nightmares, she finds the man of her dreams...
He haunts her in her dreams.
She is always searching, looking for the man who calls her from afar, a disembodied voice who knows everything about her.
But when she discovers the unimaginable secret her family has hidden for so long, her dreams—and her nightmares—invade her reality.
Her true love beckons, but the terrors await her. . . . Can she find him in time, or will their love—and her life—be destroyed?

But when she discovers the unimaginable secret her family has hidden for so long, her dreams—and her nightmares—invade her reality.
Her true love beckons, but the terrors await her. . . . Can she find him in time, or will their love—and her life—be destroyed?
Sixteen-year-old Iris has a recurring dream a long corridor of many doors, and behind each door a hidden world—some magical, some terrifying. But always she is searching for the man who calls to her—the man of her dreams—who knows everything about her, who stirs feelings in her she’s never felt before. When she discovers her father is actually the god of dreams, her nightmares and dreams follow her into reality, with both frightening and romantic results. Hunted by the god of nightmares, stalked by the horrifying creatures of the underworld, Iris must try to navigate both her worlds, as she tries to finally be with Sebastian, the man of her dreams. Can she triumph over the dangers that have haunted her forever, and be with Sebastian, or will terrors ultimately destroy them both?
You guys know I'm a sucker for a good YA romance and I tend to choose the books I want to read based on whether or not they have a romance in them, so In Dreams automatically checks one of my required boxes just by mentioning "the man of her dreams". Add in a dark and terrifying underworld and the god of nightmares and this one becomes a must read for me!
Sounds like my kind of book. Intsta-add to the TBR!
ReplyDeleteChiara @ Books For A Delicate Eternity
Sounds good! It sounds *slightly* similar to a book I'm doing the tour for actually. I'm sure they are different, but it just reminds me of it a bit.
ReplyDeleteOoOOO!!!!!!! that sounds fabulous Jenny!! And I haven't seen this one before!
ReplyDeleteOne thing that totally bugs me though, is the guy in the cover. This image is a stock image which is been so overused that I'm tired of his face. So I was actually surprised seeing that this book is from Penguin....
OOh nice! Been seeing this one a bit today! Otherwise it was new to me! Hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteHere's my WoW
Have a GREAT day!
Old Follower :)
I haven't heard of this one but it sounds really interesting!
ReplyDeleteAly @My Heart Hearts Books
Oh Jenny another book I haven't heard of before. This really sounds interesting and I hope you'll enjoy it. Great pick :)
ReplyDeleteHere is our WOW
Always good with romance too
ReplyDeleteGreat cover! I haven't seen this one yet and now, darn it, I need to add it to my Goodreads list. I love the sound of the premises!
ReplyDeleteOoh, this looks amazing, Jenny. And the romance seems very promising. Romance is a big aspect I always look for too when getting a book, Haha, so I think this might be right up my alley too. Thanks for sharing this. Great pick, Jenny! :)
ReplyDeleteEver since Inception I've always found dreams fascinating. While it seems like the romance may take on a cliche route, the book seems very promising overall. Thanks for putting this on my radar, Jenny! :)
ReplyDeleteI haven't read a good YA paranormal in TOO long. I swear. This, however, sounds like it could be the perfect thing to suck me back into the genre...plus, romance?! Sold. Yay! Fantastic pick this week! :)
ReplyDeleteIn Dreams sounds like an amazing book Jenny! I like it when book blurbs don't give too much away, this book has certainly left me wanting more! Thanks for putting it on my radar! :)
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of this one. It sounds pretty great though. I'm definitely curious!!
ReplyDelete-Lauren
Aha, you've found one I haven't heard of yet! Adding it to my tbr now, thanks. While I'm not as super into romance as you are, I think I could still appreciate this one. I mean, because how cool does it sound?! A god of nightmares? Horrifying underworld creatures? Actually, this sounds kind of freaky!
ReplyDeleteThis cover is just not my favorite. Get rid of the floating boy head and maybe. However, the story more than makes up for it! I've had that stress dream of walking down a corridor with locked doors -- I don't know if it's a good thing that it's now a book!
ReplyDeleteI always love a little bit of romance in my books too, so this one is appealing to me already. I have to agree with Mary about the cover though! It makes it look like a very cliched paranormal romance. Still, I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone thinks of this. Great pick, Jenny! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of this book, Jenny! And who doesn't love a good romance! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge fan of the cover though! I wouldn't have picked it up just by looking at the cover!
Thanks for sharing, Jenny! :)
Loving this cover!
ReplyDeleteI like my books spiced with a little romance as well so we're a lot alike:) It sounds good, too!! Hey, is that the guy from Jus Accardo's series? He looks so familiar, but I don't know where. I think I got it with JA's Touch though ;)
ReplyDeleteI have actually never heard of this one and I like the sound of it too. Plus, it has such a unique premise! I am definitely adding this to my TBR list. Thanks for sharing this one, Jenny!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds pretty cool. i like books with dream states :). Not a huge fan of the cover though.
ReplyDeleteIrene (Eureka Joe's)
*shakes head in the affirmative* Oh yea... this one sounds like one I would also enjoy. We needs this! :)
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you, I'm always in for a good YA and definitely with a bit of romance... "man of her dreams" suggests something that I can't wait for! Great Pick, Jenny! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I found you (or you found me), because I'm a sucker for a good romance too! Bring it on. I haven't read a lot of dream mythology, so this one sounds pretty fascinating. Although I will admit that the disembodied head on the cover is a little too much for me. I'm now excited about this one!
ReplyDeleteooh paranormal..we haven't had many in the YA genre of late..so this has me excited! I love the romantic aspect to this as well:)
ReplyDeleteYou had me at god of nightmares, Jenny! Never heard of this one but now I want to more. I will definitely be on the lookout for this one come January.
ReplyDeleteThis one sounds really good! I haven't seen anything about this one! Great pick!
ReplyDeleteOhh, that cover model really gets around. He is on at least three other covers that I can think of. BUT who cares!? This sounds totally dark and exciting and different! We want different these days.
ReplyDelete!!!
ReplyDeleteWe had the same pick this week! I'm not a huge fan of the cover, but I'm in love with the concept - Inception meets Unearthly? YES.
Interesting. I'm also left wondering just how she knows he's perfect for her. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of this one but I actually kind of like the focus on romance in the summary and I love that the MC is Iris because it makes me think of my friend.
ReplyDeleteYup, this book had me at "man of her dreams" too! :-) The world sounds amazing too! Awesome WoW pick :-)
