When Justine Pickering approached me recently about stocking her book Dream Sisters, I was immediately drawn to the cover, which I love! Obviously there has to be more to a book than its cover, and the description on the back was interesting enough for me to not only stock the book, but also to read it.The font's a good size, the chapters are short, and the plot had enough twists and turns to keep me enthralled without losing my way. I read it over a three day weekend, because I found it hard to put down, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. While the story is about a couple of teens, that didn’t bother me as a 65 year old, because it’s well written and really interesting.

It was amazing! The story just draws you in - I wanted to keep reading it.
I bought this for my teenage granddaughter and decided to read it first so we could both discuss it. It grabbed me straight away and pulled me through the narrative at speed - I had to see what happened next.
I read the second half in one sitting to find out how a quite complex narrative could possibly be resolved, and resolved it was in a most satisfying and unexpected way.
I felt as if I was inside the head of the main character, Anita, as she is portrayed with care and insight, and with enough supporting details which never slow down the narrative.
The fantasy aspect always feels very natural, and the scientific gems are perfect. I loved it!
