Brief synopsis: Tommy
Nightmare is book #2 in The Paranormals series by JL Bryan. Right from
the start we are introduced to a young Tommy.
We quickly understand that he has had a crappy childhood and also has powers like our three main characters from Jenny Pox. As you can tell by his name, he creates horrific nightmares just by his touch. It takes a chapter or two to find out where he falls in with the aftermath of the Fallen Oaks incident. From there, we see pov’s from both new characters and old. I read this book in one sitting because I could not wait to see what was going on!

I started this book
before my counterpart at Inkk did. Being the girl that likes to read
spoilers, I did keep myself from reading other reviews but did read the backs
of the books. I remember Katie calling, super excited, that our beloved
Jenny was back in this book. It’s easy to assume from the title that this
story would only be about Tommy. I feel it was an interesting
transition from book 1 to book 2 because we don’t pick up where we left off.
I do think Bryan is very creative in his ability to keep the story moving
forward while adding depth to his characters. It’s hard to tell specifics
because every piece of information I could give you would be a spoiler!
Just be ready for some unexpected situations that has the whole story doing a
complete 180o. Another great read from JL Bryan and can’t wait
to read the next two in the series.
Katie’s Thoughts:
Tommy Nightmare picks off right where Jenny
Pox leaves off. J.L Bryan has definitely mastered the skill of flowing from one
book to the other without effort.
The plot was amazing! Just when you thought we got rid of “ I wanna rule
the world” Ashleigh, guess again. Ashleigh clearly refuses to let death stop
her and is determined to take Jenny down more than ever.
And if that wasn’t enough issues for Jenny, we also have three other Paranormals in town (Tommy, Esmeralda, and
Alexander) plus the CDC and Homeland security!
I really love this series, and again super
thankful to Loretta @ Between the
Pages for getting me hooked on Jenny Pox.
I don’t know why but when I started reading
Tommy Nightmare, I had no idea it was going to be a continuation of Jenny Pox.
Maybe it was because it had Tommy on the cover and on the title, and the first
chapter was all about Tommy… but as soon at they started talking about Seth and
Jenny, I threw a mini parade in my mind. Needless to say, I was super excited! The Paranormal Series really is one of the
best series I have read in a while!
