Blue is for Nightmares

Blue is for Nightmaresby Laurie Faria StolarzSadly, I did not like this book very much. I found this very disappointing as I was hoping very much to love it to bits and pieces and then go right on and read the second, third and fourth books.That's not going to happen though and I have already removed those other books from my wishlist. How sad.So, Stacey is a witch and she has this best friend/roommate Drea who she's been having nightmares about. In these nightmares, Stacey tries to save her friend from being killed and having had premonition-type dreams before she's determined to keep Drea safe and stop the murderer.I wasn't even going to finish the book, since I had two more books to read. But I was determined to finish this book for a few reasons a) I have to read all the books I have bought before I buy any more and b) I was really hoping it would get better and c) I needed to know who the stalker-slash-murderer was. Heh.Generally I like stories set in boarding schools or private schools. Something about those settings just asks for bad new kids. ;) But this book just tried too hard and I can't possibly think about going through that again three more times (though the book titles and covers are awesome and would make a lovely addition to my bookshelves, though I don't care about the stories.)I sort of feel bad about not liking the book, but what can I do. I didn't like the characters or the plot. The writing itself was just fine and the dialogue didn't suck, but I just didn't find anyone likable.
