Well of Dreams is a YA Dystopian Fantasy that takes place in a future world where the legends of Norse mythology aren't just legends anymore.
Larissa and Halla have all the charm of Katniss and Prim with more sass, magic, and adventures spent together!
The combination of tropes is a dream:
➰Lost princess
➰Forgotten romance
➰Dual POV
➰Dark creatures
➰Hidden memories
➰Fast paced
➰Detailed world building
➰Found family
I could go on and on...
I loved Larissa's bravery and protectiveness, as well as Halla's impulsivity and determination. Darian and Anara were loveable characters. The pace was exciting and easy to read.
You can tell how much Kayla has poured into this book over her YEARS of developing it, and how much she has planned for this series!
Not to mention the gorgeous illustrations throughout. I've never seen a book with such beautiful art tucked inside!
The literary world is lucky to have this book!!
