Rad Reads

Hey, Daydreamer, a New Read for YOU!

Starting high school is hard for just about anyone. But for Claire Voyante, things have been much more difficult than anyone could imagine.
 
In Dream Life by Lauren Mechling (in stores now), the sequel to Dream Girl, Claire’s first semester has been slightly overwhelming. For her 15th birthday, she received a beautiful onyx and ivory cameo from her ex-socialite grandmother. All of her life, Claire has had strange dreams. But ever since she started wearing the necklace, her dreams have started to come true.
 
The start of Claire’s second semester begins Dream Life. This time around, Claire knows a bit more about her special dreams, has a great best friend (Becca), and managed to snag the guy she’s been after—even though he’s her BFF’s brother. There’s only one teensy problem: Claire hasn’t told anyone about her crazy dreams. And, suddenly, they become more intense.
 
Meanwhile, Becca is staring to hang out with her old friends, leaving Claire in the dust. The reason? There is a secret society hanging around—one with a rather mysterious enemy. And as soon as she finds out, Claire is ready to help. But is Claire the one who is actually in trouble?
 
This book has just about everything: glamour, mystery, magic, adventure and, of course, guys. Be sure to check out Dream Life (and Dream Girl, too, if you haven’t already) and let us know your thoughts. And for more info on the author, Lauren Mechling, head to laurenmechling.com.
