Dream

I fell in love with Natalia’s writing style whilst reading Trick and with each book I fell a little bit more in love. She has an incredible talent for creating unique and vibrant voices for her characters. Each of the eight main characters in this series have such incredible depth, and we get to fall in love with all of them, despite all of their flaws, or maybe, because of their flaws. The books really focus on character development and each of our protagonists grows over the course of their book – not only as a couple but also as an individual.Each of the love stories has common threads woven in to the tale, and I am happy to say that we do get to see the characters from previous books in the later ones. Although I love each of the characters, my favourites from the series are Poet, Aspen and Lyrik. I am a sucker for a sassy character and these three can sass with the best of them.As well as the incredible character development the world building in the Foolish Kingdom books is amazing. The four kingdoms of Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter are so distinct and yet share so many of the same issues, very much like our own divided world. I love that Natalia has tackled some really important issues in this series. It is done so well, and as the stories progress throughout the book we are given another voice, another perspective, to add to this already rich world. Each of the book takes place in a different kingdom, we start off in Spring with Trick and then visit Summer for Dare, Autumn for Lie and lastly we head to Winter for Dream. Each of the four kingdoms has something magical, something wonderful about it, and I am glad that we got to explore each of them through the perspectives of our couples.It was with mixed feelings that I finished Dream, the ending was, for want of a better word, was perfect – the perfect ending to a wonderful series. Yet, on the other hand I was also so sad that the end of Dream means the end of the series. And I would love to spend at least another few books in the lands of Winter and Autumn. I would recommend the Foolish Kingdoms books to any fantasy and romance fans. The series contains four of the best examples of hate to love that I have read – and as it’s one of my favourite tropes I have read a lot of them!

The author drew this entire series to a close with such an amazing book, I'm just amazed. I've followed this series from the very start & I'm so glad. The characters have always been my most beloved especially Poet. I've loved how far these characters have come & so has the plot.I guess I've said enough.Totally a 5 star for me.

This conclusion to the series, is one I have literally dreamed of! Get it, DREAM? To have Nicu's story was like a freaking gift answered!The thing about Nicu is he doesn't fit into a certain category that would be considered "normal." What Nicu is, though, is one of the most specialial characters I've ever encountered, and I feel like this story isn't only one about love, but it can relate for people in the real world.Now, let's talk about major swoon! My man, my rogue—Lyrik! Absolutely loved him and reading from his POV chapters! While Nicu is sweet and lyrical, Lyrik is feisty and blunt and down right awesome. These two lit up the pages whether together or separated!Let me just say that Jaster's writing is by far one of the best I've ever read, and I read a LOT of books! Her stories just bring emotion, and oohs and ahhs, and have my life organ pumping with happiness! This series is definitely one that will stay close to my heart!

Ever since I finished Trick, I was most excited to read Dream just to see how Nicu’s story ended. I wasn’t disappointed. Not in the least. Actually, I think this was my favorite book out of the series as it wrapped up everything in one emotionally beautiful book. That may be the understatement of the century though.Natalia’s writing isn’t simply words on pages. She creates captivating worlds and complex characters, all I can safely say I equally adore. However, Briar and Poet + Nicu and Lyrik have to be my absolute favorite couples I’ve ever met. In my humble opinion they’re also the most underrated and that is a damn tragedy alone, which needs to be fixed.I won’t go into spoilers. But I will say this book gave me everything I ever wanted for these characters I’ve come to love and cherish. And more! Each and every one gets the ending they deserve and I can’t say I could imagine anything I would’ve done differently. *cue the happy tears and lots of kleenex*I will forever cherish this series. Now, before I move on to anything else I think I’ll read this again.

The enchanting and satisfying close to the foolish kingdoms series.
