GOODREADS SUMMARY: Odea Donahue has been able to travel through people’s dreams since she was six years old. Her mother taught her the three rules of walking: Never interfere. Never be seen. Never walk the same person’s dream more than once. Dea has never questioned her mother, not about the rules, not about the clocks or the mirrors, not about moving from place to place to be one step ahead of the unseen monsters that Dea’s mother is certain are right behind them.
Then a mysterious new boy, Connor, comes to town and Dea finally starts to feel normal. As Connor breaks down the walls that she’s had up for so long, he gets closer to learning her secret. For the first time she wonders if that’s so bad. But when Dea breaks the rules, the boundary between worlds begins to deteriorate. How can she know what’s real and what’s not?
I think the most interesting part started at the very end.
This is just the ‘prequel’ for the next one.
Which I think there should be a prequel before this. It kinda started very heavy… I was looking for some support.

Note: Spoilers.
• I honestly didn’t write any notes while I was reading it. Not because I was too focused on reading it just that I really don’t have anything that I can write. Maybe 70 percent of it didn’t interest me…
But I do sincerely think the concept is great. As I was saying awhile ago the last part started at the very end. It was… and if there is going to a sequel I am going to read it. (Well… if HarperCollins will still give me ARCs then. *grin*)
• If a book is a food… a writer is a chef… I guess some food have this special ingredient that people love and they keep on coming back and recommends it to some of their friends.
Dreamland is a food that is perfectly cooked and well seasoned… the thing is it doesn’t have an oomph that will make other people like it too. Many will like it but I think some of them will choose to try another food.
• I recently made this ‘shelf’ on my head, literally. Dreamland belongs to this.
BOOKS FOR THOSE WHO ARE READING JUST TO PAST TIME NOT FOR THOSE READERS THAT MADE READING A HOBBY.
• There’s nothing to gripe on this book. The writing is okay, the concept is good, the characters are not annoying blah blah blah and the cover is awesome.

Goodreads summary: The sequel to the
action-packed Reboot is a can't-miss thrill ride, perfect for fans of James
Patterson, Veronica Roth, and Marie Lu.
After coming back from death as Reboots and being trained by HARC as soldiers, Wren and Callum have finally escaped north, where they hope to find a life of freedom. But when they arrive at the Reboot Reservation, it isn't what they expected. Under the rule of a bloodthirsty leader, Micah, the Reboots are about to wage an all-out war on the humans. Although Wren's instincts are telling her to set off into the wilderness on their own and leave the battle far behind, Callum is unwilling to let his human family be murdered. When Micah commits the ultimate betrayal, the choice is made for them. But Micah has also made a fatal mistake . . . he's underestimated Wren and Callum.
The explosive finale to the Reboot duology is full of riveting action and steamy love scenes as Wren and Callum become rebels against their own kind.

(Note: Spoilers)
- · I love the action in the first part. SO EXCITING. This guy, Micah, leader of reservation reboots is very welcoming. That is so suspicious, I already want some answers. Then the action begun… *BAM*
- · So Callum admitted to himself that he’s jealous. OHMYGAWD. Then those small gestures he’s giving Wren makes ME jealous. (I am so green with envy, I think when I looked at the mirror I looked like Ragnor Fell.)Damn he’s so perfect; he’s definitely a book boyfriend. **sigh**
- · FACT: REBOOTS can have babies. So my mind goes having some theories. And I think of baby Callum. **sigh again**
- ·
I think after I finished the first quarter of
the book my suspicions to Micah went up. And I am starting to hate him, yes
hate agad.har har. He’s a f’n sick bastard!
Then these reservation Reboot has this “Hunt”, it’s so sick. S-I-C-K. **vomit** (I am not pregnant; that not why I am vomiting, it’s just these guys are really disgusting.)
- · What is the Hunt??? That’s for you to find out.
- · In the half of the book you’ll meet the new side of Callum 22. He’s so bad-ass sexy and still cute. **sigh again**
- · Okay not everything on this book is full of happiness and action. There are some sad parts too and some will die. (Though I am happy when a particular guy/s died) **evil me**
- · In Rebel you’ll see some Reboot vs Reboot. Reboot vs HARC. HARC vs Rebels. Is there going to be an Alliance that’s going to happen? Who’s side are you?
- · Near the last part is the most exciting, the climax of the story. You better read it. It’s disgustingly good.
