This was a filler pick for me when I needed to buy something for a few bucks to make my free shipping on Amazon. I thought it sounded like a sweet romance and would be a nice change from the other books I've been reading lately. It wasn't until I wrote the author's name in my blog post that I realized why it sounded familiar. Mary E. Pearson also wrote The Adoration of Jenna Fox, one of the first YA books I read and reviewed for my blog.Scribbler of Dreams is not a futuristic or sci-fi story along the veins of Adoration, instead it is much more grounded in the realities of a typical romance novel. Not that that is a bad thing. It was exactly what I was looking for and Pearson delivered nicely. Girl meets boy, falls in love, but they are torn apart by deception, in this case the deception is due to their warring families, a la Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. As a Shakespeare lover I can't say I hate the story, and Pearson resists following too closely.
The only part that bothered me was the insta-love (and yes, I know this does follow R&J), but I found in today's world it just wasn't as believable. Kaitlin feel for Bram before even speaking to him, and within a few pages she was in love and willing to defy her family for a boy who believes she is someone else. Someone who's father hadn't killed his own. **Not a spoiler, as it's clearly on the back cover** I understood her deception initially, but the further along it went the more frustrating it became. Luckily it's a quick read at only 223 pages in pocketbook size, so I didn't have time to get really annoyed.
If you're looking for a sweet romance with some tear jerking scenes this is a quick and easy read.

Scribbler of Dreams Mary E Pearson Books Reviews
MY GRANDAUGHTER HAD TO READ THIS BOOK FOR A SCHOOL PROJECT BUT ACTUALLY LOVED IT!!
Required reading for my daughter in 8th grade.
As an eighth grade language arts teacher, this book is always a favorite for my girls. I have never had a girl that does not like this book. It has romance, excitement, and mystery all in one book. I loved the writing tie-in in the climax. I teach in a private Catholic school where funding is limited for books, so I have bought books for my reading library and this is one I never hesitate to purchase.
Right now I on page 109 and I had to take a break. Kait's lying is getting sooo long that she has now given her best friend some terminal condition!!! Man, I just want to yell JUST TELL HIM!!!! OK, so I'm going to continue reading, but I may switch back to This Lullaby when I need something to read this evening.
I ended up finishing the book and was kind of disappointed at the end. The author seemed to get tired at the end and just seemed to want to do a quick wrap up. I felt sorry for the families and I felt that her revelations from Maggie's journals did not help the families at all. The back stories behind the colleges seemed to be unresolved. Was Bram going to go to college or not? Most likely not, but the book left many things still up in the air.
I like this book. I like Romeo and Juliet-esque books though... and that's what this is. Very sweet and the emotions Kait felt were shown very clearly in the book. Her journal entries were beautifully written.
Unfortunately, you could tell very easily when things were going to happen, only because it followed the very typical plot of where everything goes down at the big party... and the book ended to suddenly. I definately would read a sequel since many plot lines were left loosely tied or up to the reader to decided.
Reccommended for a fast read.
You know the story. Two families have hated each other all their lives, and continue the tradition by raising their children to hate each other. However, the children meet, not knowing the other is their enemy, and fall in love. It's a fresh spin on it- Kait starts a new school and feeling overwhelmed, spends her time writing in her journal. But who should she meet but a boy named Bram who also likes to spend his time in the shade, quietly drawing. The two are drawn to each other and all is going well until Kait finds out who he really is. Can their love overcome their family history? You'll have to read to find out!
Overall it's a cute story, and though I don't expect one, I'd love to see a sequel. There are a lot of loose ends still laying around when the story finishes and I'd like to see what else could happen in Kait and Bram's lives.
Wow... that's all I can say. Less than a day it took me to finish this book, and it kind of got me thinking. I don't really relate to Kait Malone, but I FEEL for her. I can imagine what she's going through, and we kind of have a lot in common when it comes to the whole thing she goes on about, which is her regret.
Let's just say this is a teen romance with meaning, and no sex scenes. Yet it's still beautiful and easy to understand, even though I doubt many of us have gone through what Kait has. But I can feel for her and I can see her pain through glimpses into her private journal, and then I fell in love with the book. It's books like this that make me want to be a wonderful writer, because this is just doing it for me...
