Kayla’s 16 and a half. And she’s Lyzicc, which means her birth parents are ancient mythos creatures who’ve been hiding out on Earth.

She has no idea who they are.

All she knows is that she has a new power that shows her the daydreams of others. Two of the cutest guys in school are competing for her attention. Hale is Lyzicc and is pretty tight-lipped about his background. Collin comes from a family whose dark obsession with the Lyzicc Community keeps Kayla guessing about his true intentions.

 Join Kayla as she hunts for the truth about herself and survives high school at the same time!

DayDreamer was an interesting, quick but intriguing read. I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it at first, because the first scene involves our heroine already swooning over a guy who’s never even talked to her before, the school hottie, Hale. However, as the book progressed, I actually started to like it. Kayla is a loveable, relatable, and most of all, hilarious character. She’s a bit clumsy, a bit crazy and just plain fun to be around.

I liked the addition of supernatural creatures, Lyzicc. It was new and refreshing, and a good change from the overload of vampires and angels we’ve seen as of late.

Most of all, it’s about self-discovery. Kayla finds out her parents are ancient mythological creatures, Lyzicc, who’ve been hiding out on earth, but she has no idea who they are, or how to find them. As soon as she finds out her true heritage, she searches for the truth about herself. Her quest for the truth was reminiscent of every quest each teen goes through to find their true self, except that, well, we’re not all descendants from supernatural beings.

I’m usually not that fond of love triangles, but I enjoyed the love triangle here. Collin was my favorite though, and I kept rooting for him.

All in all, a good read if you’re a fan of YA paranormal romance. The heroine is witty and fun, and the plot is all right as well.
