When Dreams Come True is a British coming-of-age novel about Charlie (Charlotte) who would rather be biking or palling around with her three best friends Toby, Max, and Allie. But as the new school year starts, her friends, especially Allie, seem to be more interested in the opposite sex. While Charlie doesn't understand this sudden change, she finds herself having some of the same feelings.
When her aunt becomes suddenly ill, Charlie ends up
missing school as her parents take care of her aunt, but she's still able to
catch up with her friends when they come to visit on the weekend.
Led by teenage emotions and coming-of-age confusions,
When Dreams Come True is a good read for someone who wants a book that focuses
on crushes and first kisses. Other parts of the plot, like Aunt Jenny's illness
and some family drama, are not as well developed.
