This is my second time reading Dreamland. This is one of my favorite books. It teaches you such an important lesson.
Caitlin, the main character, met a guy named Rogerson at party. On that same night Caitlin feels like Rogerson is the one for her. She JUST met him! Caitlin described him as magnetic and compelling. It's crazy what boys do to you. So later on is when things start happening. Rogerson is not what Caitlin really thinks he is. The hot, nice, magical Rogerson turns out to be the opposite when she gets to know him. She's soon filled with bruises on her face.
This book teaches you about when you grow older, you cannot trust anyone. No matter how nice they are when you first meet them. The other side of them could be dangerous. Don't just go with a random person you just met. That's a real dangerous situation. The more I read this book, the more it cautions me about life. The danger certain things could cause you.
I agree, that's a really important lesson. I read this book too and I really thought Caitlin should have thought about what she was doing before throwing herself into a situation like this. Great post. :)
