Book Review: Daydream - Hannah Grace

 

Okay, this book hit me hard. It was definitely the best book from the Maple Hills trilogy if you ask me. It captured and held me a lot more than Icebreaker or Wildfire. 

Daydream follows Halle as she tries to write her first book and Henry who is struggling with some of his classes. They meet at Halle's book club and start helping each other out. It is definitely friends to lovers which I don't read a lot of, so maybe that is why I enjoyed it so much. 

Also, Halle's life is a lot like mine especially in terms of relationships. I had a really sucky first relationship and it struck a cord with me how similar everything was. It was like Hannah Grace was writing a more dramatic version of my life. Even down to the fact that I have met my Henry. He might not be as romantic as Henry Turner but he does a damn good job of looking after me. 

I think this book highlights those with neurodiversity and how their brains work differently and how they can struggle to focus. I am very much the same. However I don't think I am quite to Henry's level. Halle's ability to deal with it and show how caring she is is really good.

I loved how their relationship developed and I loved the hotel scene. It was the least spicy of Grace's books but I think that left more room for plot and a good one it was too. Very well received. 

I gave this 5⭐ and think it is possible it is could be considered one of my favourite books of this year.
