Alice wants a heart-shaped bed. Mary, Genevieve and Angelica want to know the future. June says she wants Lena to rescue her from a rat, but really she wants Lena to make out with her. Eve wants to get Wallace alone at the strawberry farm. Olivia just wants to leave the haunted boarding school and go home. Bittersweet and intimate, comic and gothic, Dream Girl is a collection of stories about young women navigating desire in all its manifestations. In stories of romance and bad driving, ghosts and ghosting, playlists and competitive pet ownership, love never fails to leave its mark.

This had tons of potential for a short story collection involving themes of desire, romance, friendships, the supernatural, dreams, and many others. However, the writing felt juvenile and simplistic and should've been focused more on a teen/young adult audience. The characters felt vapid and shallow, and the pretentious, superficial prose didn't help any. This was more of a beginning MFA attempt than a cohesive collection.
