I am blown away.
I think I saw a review prior to reading The Dream Job which stated this had been the best book they’d read all year.
Yeah, sure, ok … I thought. I’ve seen the same response elsewhere & very rarely does the story live up to the honor/hype.
To my great pleasure — this story, written by new-to-me, Kiersten Modglin — was an absolute joy to read!
Even though there’s not much “joyousness” woven into the plot of The Dream Job.
I only wish I hadn’t read it, cover to cover, overnight. I wish I could relish this story for a longer period. DEFINITELY a second edition, carrying the tale forward. So much potential for a short series!
The book is a bit …. dark, at times. But it fits the situation the characters are in. The narrative.
Though I loved every bit of this extremely well written story, I will admit to getting quite frustrated with the main character at times. I even began not to like her very much; found myself rolling my eyes often in regard to her …. ways.
But! I trusted the process, that there’d be a reason in/near the end for the annoying bits. I could clearly sense some of the over the top behavior on the part of this character was particularly purposeful. And … well — no one likes a spoiler, right?? So I won’t say more than my eye rolling workout was all ultimately worth it. Lol ;)
Strong, rich, colorful, & detailed world building. Character development was absolutely top notch. The twists, turns, conclusion — sublimely enjoyable.
Just such an intriguing storyline. Extraordinarily creative. Quite different than many other “psychological thrillers” that are out today.
Ok — you’ve read my writing for long enough! Lol You’re wasting precious time here when you could be diving into the 1st pages of this addictive story.
Just get it. Read it. Love it!
I guarantee you’ll be just as happy you did as I am.
Also! This is my very 1st Kiersten Modglin read. I am now 1000% a new fan of her work. Going to go right onto another of her stories next. My fingers are crossed it will be written just as well as The Dream Job has been (I totally suspect it will be!).
Such a fun & satisfying read!!

Kudos to Kiersten who has done it again!
I, now, after two books of Kiersten’s am a huge fan! She manages to create a world in which you cannot escape until the last page is read. One in which you both love and hate the characters, depending on who they are and always, always hope for your favorite to win! The Dream Job was no different, except the unveiling at the end, I couldn’t have seen coming even if someone gave me a little more hints. The true reveal was better than I could have ever hoped or thought of and it literally left me with my law open!I currently am awaiting the next new release, The Nanny’s Secret which is due out this coming Tuesday, June 16th, 2020
