Dream Weaver
Dream Weaver is your typical princess competition to be the prince's bride- only the prince has to die at the end. In Gaimi, magic is not celebrated but feared. Those with magic, called ekehlay, are forced into servitude. All ekehlay are marked with three silver dots above their left eyebrow. Except for dream weavers. Aecha is the first female dream weaver born in a long time and the only one since then. Her fate was sealed the moment she could hold a sword properly. The dream weaver was to spin a nightmare for Gaimi. She would train to win the competition, she would become the prince's bride, and she would kill the emperor and the prince. With their deaths, their servitude would end.

(3.5*) This was a really solid debut!
I was so excited about the premise of this novel - a diverse fantasy based on African and Asian cultures with LGBTQ+ rep, adult age characters and violence, death, magic and astrology.
I thought the world was inventive but I wish this book was longer so we could've gotten more world building and less info-dumping at times. I thought the romance was sweet but did feel a bit insta-love. I really adored the friendship between Aecha and Jira and the overall plot of the book was fast-paced and fun.
Overall, I really enjoyed this! I just think I wanted more from it. This book would be for someone who's maybe newer to the fantasy genre or someone who's in the mood for a quicker / fast-paced read.

Read it
The only con was that it was so short.
I enjoyed this book so much, I read it in one day.
The world and characters are so beautiful and I want to see so much more of them.
It's very simple and stunning at the same time.
Worth the price and I will be buying a physical copy.

This was a great fantasy! The world was well rounded and believable with fleshed out characters (also loved that they were 21-25 instead of 16 lol) but I think it would’ve benefitted from another 100-200 pages just so we could have had some time to breathe.
Here’s hoping we get a sequel cause I either need more Aecha, Koa, and Jira or more Gaimi.
