Thanks to Netgalley.com and Little, Brown Books for Young Readers for access to this title.

I usually don't like novellas, but I really enjoyed this one. I can't wait to get back to this world with the new series and see what happens with Ridley and Link.
This book is for those already in love with the Beautiful Creatures series. I don't think it works as a stand alone story, however if this was the first book you read you would be quickly reaching for the other books. Dangerous Dream is a short novella that gives insight into both Ethan and Lena and Ridley and Link's relationships. The story is a quick read that will leave you wanting more. I received a review copy of this book via NetGalley.
This probably a hopeful one-up star grade there. I have missed this world and I'm really curious to see how these two authors handle a crazy new world and the best friends of the original main characters, while telling us more about both of their worlds again.
soaring to new heights of self-loathing, BUT this new series is going to be about two of the only tolerable BC characters and I've no sense of shame or pride anyway so why not
I read this because a reviewer insisted on reading this before starting Dangerous Creatures, so I did. I see why it was needed, but this felt really half-assed and put together last minute for zero reason.

Bubby: Now all you Beautiful Creatures addicts, don't get too excited. This is NOT a new book but rather a teaser novella/short story that introduces the new book, Dangerous Creatures (coming out May 20th). All of our favorite characters are back but this time around the focus is on Ridley, that naughty lollipop wielding Caster girl.

Sissy: Yes, Ridley is naughty and if I were her mother I would lock her in her room and duct tape her to the wall! This novella made me mad because la la, yes, it gets you a glimpse into the life of Ridley and whets your appetite for the new book, but the story just leaves you hanging. This is rightfully called a teaser!
Bubby: But it was fun to read anyway! 3.5 lollipops. I mean bubbles.

Sissy: Yes. Still show more mad. 3 bubbles for me. show less
