Sweet Nightmare

Calder Academy, Book 1

By: Tracy Wolff

Narrated by: Suzy Jackson, Andrew B. Wehrlen

Length: 15 hrs and 21 mins

Publisher's summary

The scariest school on earth is about to experience real fear....

Most schools are about being the best. This school? It's about being the worst. Calder Academy is where the rogue paranormals go. The ones who break the rules or lose control. And when that happens for vamps, werewolves, witches, and dark fae? It gets pretty freaking scary.

I should know. Because I'm trapped here.

Look, every seventeen-year-old girl thinks their mom is a tyrant. But mine just happens to run Calder Academy, which paints a giant target on my back. The way I make it through these dark halls is by steering clear of the things—and kids—who go bump in the night.

Especially Jude Abernathy-Lee.

But when a freak storm hits our isolated island, I'm stuck without a backup plan. The power is gone. The lights are out. And our worst nightmares are suddenly real—and out for blood. Now, the only way to survive is to align myself with one evil to avoid the other.

And the only thing worse than the idea of getting close to Jude? Secretly loving every minute of it.

Loved it!

A good read. Can’t wait for the next one! Love the references to the crave series.

Love that it’s a twist off Crave

I genuinely love Tracy as an author… I hate we have to wait a year for the next book… I got giddy when Remmy came into this story. I was like no way!!! I had no idea this was a twist off of the crave series so it made me love it that much more when I realized it… very cute book, different story line with the nightmares, I would have never thought to write about something like this. Guess that’s why I’m in the medical field and not an author lol… can’t wait to see where this leads..

Wanting more of JUDE

I wish I could've loved this book I felt like I needed more. Overall I did fall for "Jude" wish there was more of him and all other characters were great as well especially Izzy and Remy . It was a pretty good book I enjoyed it.

Tracy Wolff has done it again!!!

This book was amazing and it was so great to be put back into the crave universe but with compelling new characters and an unexpectedly thrilling storyline. I absolutely loved this book and I cannot wait for the next one! It was so great to see Remmy and Issy back and I hope they are in the next book. I also loved the performance from the narrators. All around fantastic work!!!

Fantastic story

I love Tracy Wolffs books. This one however has a very unique story line and love the character tie in .

New story, some old characters

I told the story was good. It was getting hearing some old characters from the Crave Series. This new take in the supernatural world is interesting. I can’t wait for the next two books!

Good Story Boring Performance

I would have definitely enjoyed the story better if the narrator wouldn’t have read the whole book in the same tone. Even the exciting moments fell flat because of her lack of acting.

Amazing !

Super awesome spin off of crave you must read this asap. I really loved how it was its own story but also tied into the other one !

Good plot, great characters, but drags on

The book drags a bit and over describes some situations. Some instances seem way to drawn out and it made me antsy to get to the story line.

Wolff did a great job with character building and I loved the main character as well as the supporting characters. Tracey always produces distinctive lovable characters and evil villainous characters.

I found this novel entertaining and am looking forward to Book 2.

*Side Note - I originally thought this spin-off series would revolve around Izzy & Remi as the main characters, then found out they were supporting characters after the book was released. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the new characters and believe she kept Remi & Izzy’s characters consistent to their original behaviors and characteristics which was fun!

Narrators: I found the female’s voice too high pitched, and found the male voice to not match the character I was expecting.

Great read

Great read, captivating. I didn't like how abruptly it ended, but I guess that's how they get you to read the next book.
