Plot: Veronica is your typical high schooler, who is have untypical dreams;She keeps seeing a blonde guy in a kilt.
Veronica's friend, Mackenna, thinks Veronica is seeing this guy because they are going to Scotland, so it is filtering into her subconscious.
Veronica knows she isn't crazy and she thinks going to Scotland will prove it,
What I liked about this book: The world Veronica and Mackenna go to is Brigadoon, the same world in the Brigadoon musical. I like the Brigadoon musical, so that element in the book interested me
The writing style reminded me of Jenny B. Jones' books, which I liked a lot.
What I didn't like about it: This book contains language, a ton of innuendo, and quite a few inappropriate scenes.
Would I recommend this book? Because of the bad content, no.
I liked the idea of this book, however didn't wind up loving it when all was said and done - and I cannot put my finger on the "why" of what didn't set well with me. I remember being surprised by all the content in what I'd assumed was a Christian novel, however I am curious to see what book 2 is like! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting Rissi!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was a Christian book too, which was one of the reasons I decided to read it.
The content makes it un enjoyable.
I hope book two is much, much better.
I hope you are having a great week Rissi!
