Negative Positive
Title: Almost exceptional book...
Review: I'm not a big fan of romances in general, but Barnett's 'Dreaming' is worth reading. It contains lovable characters, an interesting plot, and some funny moments. I particularly love the hero and heroine's interactions with each other. Certain scenes would take me from tears to laughter in a matter of paragraphs.Maybe I'm just a relentless romantic and was glad that Letitia's persistance finally paid off or maybe it was the way Richard slowly fell in love with Letitia, but something made this book one of my all-time favorites.However, I couldn't give this book five stars simply because it assumes that the reader has finished some other Barnett work. I didn't care about the characters of Joy and Alec and wondered why they were even in it. Maybe if I had read the previous book, I'd care about them, but I didn't and felt precious page space was being wasted on them. That and the somewhat strange use of magic kept me from giving 'Dreaming' five stars.
