This sounds like a simple yet intriguing premise! Solid character development as a backbone to the plot line is a good endorsement! I am curious about the dream interpretation aspect as well, since that is a tough subject to write about without sounding silly.

Your very thorough review has great insight into this book. I added it to my reading list as I too enjoy a suspense book. I did note some reviews talked about the intense level for reading. I will need to read it myself to see if I have any difficulty with the vocabulary rigor. Nice job.

It sounds like it has an interesting look at the physiological effects of childhood trauma on later life. Thanks for the review.

While I enjoyed the writing based on the sample I read, I wasn't so much interested in the plot. I think I'll have to pass on this one.

Between the mystery of his childhood devastating event and dream apparitions of a woman he barely knows, it's no wonder Charlie is having a difficult time in being happy. I love when authors use higher vocabulary words and it's great to hear that the plot turned out to be deeper than what you first thought it would be. This seems like a very thought-provoking read. I'm not really interested in dream interpretations, but I'm glad you found the author's writing compelling and you enjoyed this one! Thank you for the lovely review!

Not something I´d usually read, but I do always love a book with a good character development, and lately I´ve been craving some good psychological thrillers, and I especially love when they involve dreams.

Thank you for such a great review! I was looking for something different to read because I seem to be stuck in a rut. This book may just fit the bill.

I enjoyed your review, but I still don't know what the plot of the book is. I started reading the book, but the author jumps around so much from one thought to another, I have already gotten lost. Thanks!

Brilliant review and love the first few chapters of this story. I agree it is definitely a compelling story and has pulled me in from the very beginning. I can see myself devouring this in one sitting. 😀

Thanks for this positive review. As a great fan of psychological mystery novels, I won't hesitate to grab this one. I am pleased especially that, the author seemed to have done an intensive research on dream interpretation and this is where my interest lies.
