I did enjoy that the story had me guessing "Who done it?" the entire time but I felt like it had me guessing because it was poorly organized not because it was cleverly written. Also, being a YA book I felt there was way too much needless vulgarity. I understand the emphasis a good "B(%#+" can have in a book but to have a number of page littered with them was way too much for my taste. I give this book a 2.5 out of 5 on my scale. ( )The Blue is for Nightmares series by Laurie Faria Stolarz has been one of my favorites for a while now. These stories are about witchcraft. I love the darkness and suspense of these books. Certain aspects will really stick with you (the Miss Marry Mack rhyme in White is for Magic comes to mind. *shivers*) Very captivating and fun story. I was drawn to the characters. They were very real and at times humorous, which I enjoyed next to the creepy scenes. A fun read that keeps your attention. You want to know the end! Scary at times, and others just funny (in a good way), read this if you're looking for a light scare. Stacey's dreams are so powerful and can predict many things. But the hints from her dreams could have many different interpretations which made the story interesting. Blue is for nightmares by Laurie faria Stolarz is about Stacey Ann Brown attends a boarding school where she rooms with her best friend, Drea. She happens to have a major crush on Drea's current boyfriend, Chad. Other boys from the co-ed school, PJ and Donovan become involved as the tale progresses. Except that recently Stacey has been having nightmares that make her wet her bed, much to her embarrassment. She attempts to keep it from Drea, although Stacey's nightmares always involve searching for Drea in a wood. Which are too real to ignore. The last time she decided to ignore them a little girl died. Blue is for nightmares has an interesting theme because it is a thriller wit romance and love involved in it. And how Stacey tries to save her best friend Drea from getting killed by a psycho stalker. While having feelings for Drea’s boyfriend. Stacey does a card reading for Drea, but doesn't tell her that the Ace of Spades (the Death card) comes up. Drea begins to receive odd communications, including lilies, which Stacey connects death. Then Veronica Leeman, a rather stuck-up girl with her own clique, tells them she'd also been receiving similar odd correspondence. Veronica is found dead in one of the classrooms in the middle of the night by Stacey, and from then on she does her best to protect Drea with the one secret weapon she can trust, the folk magic that her grandmother taught her though feeling guilty for Chad's obvious interest and approaches to Stacey rather than her best friend. Will Stacey’s magic be strong enough to defeat her nightmares? Or will they come true like the rest of her dreams? I really recommend anyone who loves thrillers to read this book because it will have you wanting to read it nonstop and you will never guess what happens in the end. 0.046 seconds to build listing no reviews | add a review
