Description

God will give you blood to drink . . . An ordinary teenager finds out what witch-hunting is all about—in her own everyday world. Deliverance "Delli" Willis, a normal, almost-sixteen-year-old, finds herself dreaming wild dreams about a girl in 1692 who is also named Deliverance. And then, to Delli's amazement, the stuff of dreams appears in her classroom unit on the Salem Witch Trials! Is it just a coincidence when 1692 Deliverance finds herself entranced by a mysterious man in the woods, and then Delli finds a new and mysterious neighbor walking through her family avocado grove? Or when her dreams uncover similarities between both mystery men—and more? Delli's not sure what to believe, but she's eager to share the handsome newcomer with her circle of friends. What she doesn't realize is the danger of someone unique entering the closed loop. Fingers point, jealousies surge, lies are cast, sides taken—and people are out for blood. It's a modern-day witch-hunt that collides with 1692 in ways Delli never dreamed. It will take lessons from her dreamscape and a stand against bullies to tighten Delli's faith in God and pull her through some trials of her own.

I would like to thank Pelican Book Group and Netgalley for this partnership.

I was immediately attracted by the cover and the summary.

We find the pretty Delli nicknamed Deliverance who at 16 years dream dreams crazy. During the course of Salem Witch's essays she will dream that she is in 1692 in the company of a mysterious man in the woods.

A book filled with suspense and twists with a captivating story and endearing characters. I look forward to reading another book by this author so much I love her pen.

So, I read the synopsis for this book and I was all over it, but I'm not going to lie once I started reading it? It really wasn't was I was expecting it. But, I kind of have a problem that once I start a book I have to finish it, I have DNF'd a book, there I have confessed. There has been many times I'm reading I so not in the mood for that book but I push myself through it because I just cannot not finish the book. So, even though this was not was I was expecting from the book I read it and at the end? I like it...and one of the reasons I ended up liking more was because it wasn't so romance heavy, yes there is so romance but totally not the main point of the story so that helped a lot. And talking about the story, let's get to it...

Deli is a normal 16 year old girl, until one day when she wakes up from a so real dream and realize that stuff from the dreams are happening in her classroom when they are studying the Salem Witch Trials and more weird they other things in her life crosschecks with her dreams.

Deli's witch-hunt in 1692 is colliding with Deli's modern life and it will take some lessons to make modern Deli to get her through the end.

I ended up giving the book a 3.75 out of 5, it was a good read, you end up wanting to find out what the heck is going to happen to 1692 Deli and then what else is going to happen to modern Deli. It ended up being a quick and fun read for sure.
