But Sloane isn't so sure, especially when Mr Phillips starts acting strange in real life. Sloane becomes convinced that her dreams are trying to warn her about something that actually happened, and she will stop at nothing to try and prove it.
I really liked this story. The writer uses some pretty unusual words so you might need to keep a dictionary handy! However, I enjoyed the twists and turns in Lucid and the ending blew me away! This is a good book for people like me who have had crazy dreams and wondered if the information in dreams actually means something or not.
