All the fairy tales are real and now I can’t escape them…even when they break my heart.
Madilynn Dormiens didn’t know how dark the world really is, that is until the dark tales took it over. Death, pain and torment are the new motto of Lost Time Academy.
There is no place for love in this academy.
If the dark tales controlling the Lost Time Academy weren’t difficult enough, The Tale … weren’t difficult enough, The Tale brothers are out of control, and Quinton Frostan is causing trouble now that he is back in Madi’s life.
The sort of trouble that will get them all killed.
Except Quinton is determined to make a big change, one that could bring someone they all want back…but the price of that change is too high.
Too dangerous.
Love just might get them killed after all.
Even the darkest Fairy Tales can fall in love…

We pick back up with Sin dead and the dark takes taking over the Academy. This comes with lots of surprises and twists that will blow your mind. Just when you think it can’t get any better you reach the ending which left me speechless wishing the next book was already here. A fantastic twist on fairy tales that will keep you hooked. I totally loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.
Omg this series just gets better and better. I love Madi and the Tale brothers but they might have some competition. Warren is Madi’s guard and he will do anything to protect her. I love the story of good fairy tales and of course the villains. I can’t wait to read what happens next especially how this book ended.
***I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.***
Tales & Dreams is the second book in the Lost Time Academy series and starts off right where G. Bailey left us in Tales & Time. This story sees Madi, the Tale brothers and Quin in an action packed story, with dark tales being a larger focus this time round.
I am not a fairytale person, but G Bailey does a great job with keeping this limited on the fairytale. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series.
** spoiler alert ** Tales and Dreams continues the story where it left off with Madi grieving the loss of Sin. The Lost Time Academy was in chaos with Rueben, King of Dark Tales took over the place and killed most of the good tales people. Now it is up to Madi and her friends to plan how to get the school back, possibly save everyone from Reuben’s clutches while fulfilling the raven’s prophecy.
Book 2 will see Madi cementing her relationship with the other Tale brothers. I was glad that she and Tobias finally get that time to be together. Honestly, I don’t know what to feel about her fall off with Quin though. Guess I got emotionally invested with them as a couple and the possible “forbidden love” (good tale vs dark tale). Warren, though is still a mystery. I’m intrigued by his backstory and I can’t wait to learn more of him. I feel that there is more to his role and I’m dying to know if he would stick to the side he decided on or no. I’ll see until then. Book 3 can’t come soon enough!
A unique twist on fairytale heroes and villains!
The descendants of fairytale characters join together in a war against the dark tales. It’s hard to know who to trust when unsure if all the stories ever told are as real as they say. One thing is for certain, no one can get in the way of love…
This series is truly amazing and worth reading. This YA series hooks you from the start. When I realized the second book was out, I had to get it. I have been thinking about this story since I finished the first book. It did not disappoint, though it was strange to see the turn of events in the relationship between Madi and Quin.
I cannot wait to get my hands on the next book!

Tales and Dreams picks up right where book 1, Tales and Time, left off (or a few hours, give or take). Anyone who has yet to pick up this series & is looking at book 2, just back up & read book 1 then come back here.
There is a new guy introduced to Madi’s harem? Gotta admit though I like him. I can’t wait to read book 3, Tales and Darkness!
*** No Spoilers ***
Oh my, I honestly think this book was better than the 1st book. Gem has out done herself with this series! The storyline continues with sadness, grief, passion, and love. Not only does Madi experience all of that, but so does everyone other character in the story. I cried mostly though the first half of the book. There are twists I didn’t see coming, but I’m so delighted that it happened. I’m looking forward to the next book in the series!
••• I highly recommend this book/series! •••
