Erika Kehlet (21 KP) rated Doggone It (Dreamwalker, #3) in Books
Feb 21, 2018
Book 3 of The Dreamwalker Series.
I frequently read paranormal cozies, but this was my first encounter with a ghost dog! Baxleys abilities as a dreamwalker were unique, and when they stopped working for her, it added a whole new layer of conflict to the story. The mystery kept me guessing, the characters were entertaining, and the paranormal element was a lot of fun.
Doggone It is book #3 in the Dreamwalker series, but the first one that I read. I had no trouble figuring out what was going on, or who was who, but I wish I would have read the other books just to have seen the characters relationships develop firsthand.
<i> NOTE: I voluntary read and reviewed an advanced copy. </i>

The world this takes place in is interesting.
The characters
So, I liked this book. I think the world this takes place in was vivid, you were able to really see and feel what the author wanted to show you. I actually really like the characters, too. However, it was a little predictable. I kept thinking this is going to happen or this character is not who they seem, and then I’d be proved right. There were still twists because I couldn’t predict exactly what was going to happen, but I saw pieces of it before I was supposed to. I give it a solid 8 because it was interesting and there a lot of really likeable things about this book.
Okay, first off I want to say that I came into this book with an open mind. I'm not a huge fan of history books, but this one did look like it could be interesting. There was great potential in this book but I fear that it did not live up to what it could have been.
My main problem with this book was how it read like a text book. Honestly, it felt like I was back in history class getting ready to hear about the women who helped win the war. This would have been a very compelling powerpoint presentation but I did feel that it was monotonous.
I loved the concept of the book, unfortunately I felt like I was reading a text book.

THIS FREAKING BOOK, you know those times when you just pick up a book and it reminds you why you love to read? This is one of those books. Every single detail about this book was perfect, every character had a purpose and identity. I couldn't put this down and for once I didn't spoil a book for myself even though I ws about to on so many occasions but I'm so glad I didn't because the big reveal was even more beautiful and special than I ever expected <spoiler>and abraham louis greenfeld is the softest boy I have ever encountered</spoiler>.
