Blue Is Also for Dreaming — Laurie Faria Stolarz

Someone's watching you . . .


The nightmares are back. Only it's twenty years later, and Stacey Brown's daughter, Anna LeBlanc, is experiencing haunting dreams that keep her awake at night. The dreams involve Madeleine, a fellow student at Hillcrest Prep, the same boarding school that Stacey and friends attended all those years ago.


In her dreams, Anna sees Madeleine trapped in a closet with a blood-stained note at her feet. As the nightmares get progressively detailed and disturbing, Anna remains in denial, keeping the dreams a secret. She doesn't want to believe they could be prophetic, like her mother's, nor does she want to feel responsible for someone else's life -- even if that someone is a close friend.


If only Anna could embrace the power of magic to help her cope. But Anna hates all things magical, despite having been raised on moon-bathed milk, lavender-sprinkled bedsheets, and crystals. After all, magic wasn't able to save her father, so what good is it?


But as eerie things start happening in Madeleine's life -- creepy notes, menacing phone calls, and a mysterious person lurking -- Anna can't deny it: her premonitions are real, and if she doesn't embrace her abilities and use them to help her friend, Madeleine might just wind up dead.
