My name is Lacy. I was a college student and waitress who suffered from hallucinations. In my visions and dreams, I was a girl named Lucy. My life was a chaotic mess. Bad luck seemed to follow me wherever I went. Derek was a painter and photographer with a passion for creativity and an allure to alcohol. Our lives intertwined. It was a magnetic pull. We started dating until Derek took off and news of a malicious disease emerged. No one understood how it spread, but Derek knew more than he was letting on. Little did he realize, I had developed serious symptoms…

Before I get into my review, I just wanted to say that I thought this book was pretty good. I read this book in one sitting. I was confused at some points because I didn’t know who was talking. I wasn’t sure if it was Lacy or Lucy. Aside from that little issue I didn’t really get into the book until the last 75-80 percent of the book. That’s when it really picked up or me.
This is a book about a girl named Lacy who suffers from hallucinations. In her dreams she is a woman named Lucy who has kids. Her life is pretty crazy, no one in her family/friends know that she has these hallucinations until later on in the book.
Derek is a guy who lives in a house with some other friends and he loves to paint and take photos. One down fall that he has is he likes to drink. Derek is also a ladies man.
One day while Lacy was on her way to class she likes to take the bus instead of her car. She sees Derek on the bus an the only thing that she knows about him is that he has gorgeous blue eyes.
When Derek and Lacy finally meet they have an instant connection.
There was one part of the story that I laughed at because it reminded me of I Love Lucy and I loved that it referenced that in the book. When Desi says “Luuuucy, I’m coooming for yooooou” was one of my favourite lines from the show. Any way back to my review. While Lacy is hallucinating some one is saying “Luuucy, I’m coooming for yoooou” but she isn’t sure who.
Near the end of the book something happens to Lacy an I feel bad for her. After everything that has happened Lacy tells her family and friends Liz and Jenny that she’s been having hallucinations and I thought it was really sweet that they were really supportive of her.
The author contacted me for an honest review of her book.
