Dreams with secrets

For awhile I wrote down the dreams I remembered right when I woke up and the more I did this, the more often I remembered more of my dreams and they certainly were doozies sometimes. It was quite fun. This story takes it one step further with the development of tech that can record dreams and official dreamers who share those dreams with a wide audience as a way to earn a living. Some are very successful, like Peri, and others are still trying to find their niche, like Maeve. It was very intriguing at first, and I think it was cool to be able to record dreams, but then it kinda dived off the deep end a little to soon with the mysterious woman that kept showing up in Peri's dreams and her complicated stuff for wanting Peri's help. It got a bit convoluted but still nicely creepy with how no one really knows all the ins and outs of dreaming (though it is very important for mind health) and the twist this book had (especially with Maeve's very popular dream) was cool. This story had some rough edges but I enjoyed it with all the dreams and consequences that new tech might have that are not discovered yet are real. So, a bit if thriller, a bit of dreamy, and a fairly good start to a new series as I do want to find out why Maeve's dreams are the way the are and if Peri, can find happiness after all that happened to them.
