A Season of Sinister Dreams by Tracy Banghart

Thank you to Netgalley for an audiobook copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
It took me a while into this book and I really don't know why because I ended up enjoying it quite a bit. It might have been because the physical book I was reading was similar so it was just hard to keep track of what was happening in which.
The characters were interesting. We had 2 main characters, Annalise and Evra. Annalise lived in the castle and was next in line for throne. Evra has just discovered her clearsee (spelling?) magic, one of the most rare magical gifts. While these 2 girls had great personalities, it was told from each of their POV's in the first person, so there were so many times I couldn't remember which POV I was on unless someone else said one of their names. A lot of the side characters were really great too.
The plot once I really got into it was captivating. We learn about some things Annalise that she isn't proud of and doesn't want Evra to find out being a clearsee (able to see past/present/future visions). It really seems like these 2 girls have the same overall goal and will be fast friends to conquer that goal, but it really ends up the opposite which was different and refreshing. All the twists and turns at the end really had me excited to listen to every single minute.
While I think this is a standalone, there is a lot of potential for a future sequel and I would be very interested to learn more about these characters.
