Today I am super excited to be part of the DREAM BOY blog tour and share a very special video that Mary Crockett and Madelyn Rosenberg made especially for Stories & Sweeties!
I hope you enjoy this! Watch Mary and Madelyn interview each other! :D
More about the book:
DESCRIPTION:
If dreams can come true…then so can nightmares
One night Annabelle dreams of the perfect boy: tall and handsome
with impossible blue eyes. Then, just as suddenly as he appeared,
he’s gone…until he walks into her science class the next day.
Perfect and REAL. The boy of her dreams. And when he brushes past
her, he whispers “Annabelle.” Suddenly, Annabelle’s got the
perfect boyfriend and a date to homecoming. Her life is like a dream
come true...until her dreams stop and the nightmares begin.
EXCERPT:
I’ve always been a dreamer. Daydreams. Night dreams. Dreams
of grandeur and dreams of escape. If I were an onion and you peeled
back the papery outside, you’d find layer after layer of
eye-watering dreams. And in the center, where there’s that little
curlicue of onion heart? There’d be a puff of smoke from the dreams
that burned away.
It was all just brain waves, I thought—disconnected, like the
notebook that my friend Talon keeps. She draws a line down the middle
of the page; on the right she writes everything she remembers about a
dream, and on the left she puts notes about the stuff that’s
happening in real life, things that might trigger her subconscious.
Reality on one side, dreams on the other—a clear line between the
two.
But it turns out there are no clear lines, just a jumble of
what is and what might be. And all of it is real.

About Mary & Madelyn:
Mary Crockett likes turtles, licorice, and the Yankees. Madelyn
Rosenberg likes cats, avocados, and the Red Sox. Luckily they both
like the weirdness of dreams (and each other) enough to write novels
together. The friendship has survived three moves, six kids and
countless manuscript revisions. Madelyn lives just outside of
Washington, D.C. Mary remains in the mountains near their hometowns
in southwestern Virginia. You can find them on Twitter
@marylovesbooks and @madrosenberg or their blogs at www.marycrockett.com and www.madelynrosenberg.com.
