Dreamspell

I’ll admit, I approached *Dreamspell* with skepticism—Christian fiction can often feel preachy or predictable. But within the first hour, I was hooked. Kennedy Plain is a protagonist who *earns* your investment: a woman who’s spent her career dissecting dreams, only to have her own unravel when she’s handed a death sentence. The premise alone—terminal illness meets possible divine intervention via dreams—could veer into melodrama, but Leigh keeps it grounded. Kennedy’s anger, her bargaining, her desperate clinging to logic even as her body betrays her? It’s all so *human*. Mary Sarah Agliotta’s narration is a masterclass in restraint. She doesn’t overplay Kennedy’s emotions; instead, she lets the silence between words carry the weight. Her delivery of the dream sequences, though, is where she shines—hushed, almost hypnotic, making you lean in as if you, too, might glimpse the prophecy. My only critique? The pacing stumbles slightly in the middle, when Kennedy’s internal monologues start to circle the same doubts. And while the ending lands with emotional punch, it might feel *too* neat for readers who prefer ambiguity over resolution. Still, the audiobook’s production is flawless—no jarring edits, no distracting background noise—just a clean, immersive listen. If you’re craving a story that grapples with faith without easy answers, this is your sign to hit play.
