Official Review: The Dream Keepers by Linda Keen

[Joy Boudreau]

This sounds like a book I would be interested in. It sounds like the author has succeeded in drawing well-rounded characters who experience quite a bit of personal growth. Growing up is indeed a challenging time - especially when thrown into difficult circumstances. Also, it seems as though this book covers a wide range of important topics. Good discussion material. Thanks for the review!

I agree with the reviewer in that the characters are well developed. I was drawn into Thatcher's and Star's world immediately. The writing is superb.

Thanks for the great review stoppoppingtheP on The Dream Keepers. The story sounds interesting. 2 orphan siblings go live with their grandparents that are very different then they are use would be a difficult change. Thanks to the author.

I typically don't read YA but this one sounds interesting. Thank you for your review.

This story spans the siblings’ childhood and teenage years. It tells us their various struggles through issues such as racism, friendship, love, family issues, and the struggle to find themselves.

This sounds interesting and worth reading. Thanks for the review.

I enjoyed the story though briefly, I liked the way of writing, and constructive ways in which the characters were alive. I seriously think it's a good book to read while you're traveling. I can't t think of anything that I don't about this book. I recommend this book to anybody who enjoys reading, but especially those who like to read books in which a large portion of the character’s life is shown and the character grows and develops throughout the events in the book, I myself I'm new to books but them I already got hooked.
Check it out to understand what I mean.

Even though I usually love YA novels, I just don't think I could get into this one. I don't particularly care for stories that cover spans of the characters' lives - which is why I also don't like memoirs or autobiographies - and it sounds like that's just what this is. I'm really glad they did such a good job with the characters, though, as I think it's vitally important to have firm foundations for characters that the reader will be following for decades of time.

I like to read the growth and journey of characters in stories. I'll definitely give it a read. Thanks for the review

Thank you for the in-depth glowing review of The Dream Keepers by Linda Keen. It sounds like an interesting premise in which two siblings orphaned at a young age are raised by two sets of grandparents. It sounds like there are powerful themes of coming of age, friendship, and family in the story.

[Katherine Smith]

I like this book because it addresses both the good and bad sides of growing up. I especially like that the characters are African American because it gives the readers a different perspective. Issues like racism which must be discussed can be done so through books such as this one. It allows people who are not black to feel sympathy or empathy with the characters as they go through their journeys.

The review of this book seems very positive. Making me think this book has a lot of promise.

[Lilybeth]

It's a great review. It gives an interest to know more about the story. The change and how the two characters adjust their lifestyle, transferring from one home to another, from their childhood to teenaged. I really like the review. Thank you!

[KlareAllison]

Linda Keen's The Dream Keepers is my kind of narrative. It's interesting that the author explores significant themes such as family and friendship through the characters of two siblings, Star and Thatcher. I think the review is so well-done!

[Damorela00]

This book portrays a family story which spans the siblings’
childhood and teenage years. It tells us about their various struggles through real life issues such as racism, friendship, love, family issues, and the struggle
to find themselves. A Must read for myself & Family

This book sounds amazing! When I read that the children were happy with one set of grandparents but then had to start a new life with their second set, I was worried that the book would turn to abuse. It is so refreshing to know that there are books out there that deal with the complications of new relationships and situations without having to throw that into the plot! I can't wait to read this book. Thank you for the wonderful, honest review.
