I expected a good read, and this book truly did not disappoint me.

I've had the pleasure of reading the first few pages, and I can boldly say that the fresh experience and the unique plot devices employed by the author are really captivating my attention and pulling me in. It's as if I'm being drawn into a different world, eager to explore every nook and cranny of the story. I simply can't wait to get through the entire book and discover all the secrets and surprises that lie within its pages.

[I've read and adored [book:Gathering Blue|12936], as well as The Giver (and I've been pining over Messenger, lol). Once I saw this book on sale, I knew I just had to get it! It was like a sign from the literary gods that I couldn't ignore. I'm excited to see how this new addition to my collection will stack up against the others and what new adventures it will take me on.]

Wonderful!

A little book, simple in its appearance, but it packs a powerful punch. It's truly amazing how Lois Lowry manages to convey such deep and profound messages within the limited pages of her books.

One can't help but wonder, though, why her books can't be just a little longer. There is so much more that could be explored, so many additional details that could be added to enhance the story even further.

Perhaps it's the author's intention to leave the readers with a sense of longing, a desire to know more about the characters and their lives. Or maybe it's a testament to her skill as a writer that she can say so much with so few words.

Regardless of the reason, Lois Lowry's books continue to captivate readers of all ages, leaving a lasting impression long after the final page has been turned.

I've never wished I'd written any book I've ever read.

Well, until tonight. Truly. This book was something truly remarkable. It was filled with words that seemed to dance off the page, memories that flooded in like a river (and there were so many of them), stories that tugged at the heartstrings, fear that made the heart race, family that provided a sense of warmth and belonging, and the arduous struggle against the brokenness that life often throws our way.

It was simply magical. It so closely mirrored everything I've longed (but unfortunately failed) to express in words - it was as if I was reading a part of my own mind. Only it was more beautiful. Somebody recently said about a book that "you might as well read my soul," and that's exactly how I feel about this story.

Most importantly, I think this book had exquisitely beautiful words. I adored the way it handled memories, the past, and the darkness. It was like a guiding light in the midst of my own personal storm. And it just arrived at the perfect time for me. I'm overjoyed that I spent the 99 cents on these compiled words. I'm going to cherish them forever.

P.S. Littlest One was absolutely precious.

"'Of course we do. All creatures have shadows. They are a phenomenon created by light.' A phenomenon created by light, what a fine phrase, Littlest thought."

I had a desire to read something distinct from my typical choices.

However, to my disappointment, I was not satisfied with this particular book.

The main reason I didn't like it much was that I found the plot rather boring.

Although the book did possess a nice story and conveyed a good message, it simply wasn't something that held my intense interest.

The only factor that led me to decide to give this book a chance was that the characters and the world in which the creatures lived were quite fascinating.

Nonetheless, despite these interesting aspects, the overall experience of reading the book was not as enjoyable as I had hoped.

Perhaps if the plot had been more engaging and exciting, I would have had a different opinion of the book.

As it stands, it will not be a book that I would highly recommend to others.

Maybe someone else with different tastes might find more to appreciate in it.

I guess it's around 2.8 stars.

To be honest, I still haven't completely grasped what the main point was. However, there was something about it that made it kind of interesting.

Maybe it was the unique way the story was told or the characters that had a certain charm.

Despite not fully understanding the essence, I found myself engaged to some extent.

It's like a mystery that I'm still trying to solve.

Overall, it was an experience that left me with a bit of a mixed feeling.

On one hand, I was intrigued, but on the other hand, I felt like there was something more that I was missing.

Nonetheless, it was still worth the read, and I'll probably think about it for a while longer.

It was extremely painful.


It was special, bitter, painful, and powerful.


The pain was like a sharp knife cutting through my heart, leaving a deep and unforgettable wound.


It was a pain that I could not ignore or escape from.


It made me feel weak and helpless, as if I was lost in a dark and endless abyss.


But at the same time, this pain also made me stronger.


It taught me to face my difficulties and challenges bravely, and not to give up easily.


It made me realize that life is full of ups and downs, and that we need to learn from our experiences and grow.


Although the pain was very intense, I believe that it will pass eventually, and that I will come out of this experience a better and stronger person.

This book still makes me feel all the things.

It has the power to transport me to different worlds and make me experience a wide range of emotions. The words on its pages seem to come alive, painting vivid pictures in my mind and tugging at my heartstrings.

Whether it's the excitement of a thrilling adventure, the sadness of a heart-wrenching loss, or the joy of a beautiful romance, this book has it all.

It makes me laugh out loud one moment and brings tears to my eyes the next.

Every time I pick it up, I am completely immersed in its story, forgetting about the world around me.

It is a truly remarkable book that continues to have a profound impact on me, long after I have turned the last page.

This was a truly cute story that delved into the fascinating sources of dreams and nightmares.

It had a certain charm that was quite endearing. However, when compared to some of Lowry’s other remarkable pieces, it did seem a bit more on the childish side for my personal taste.

But then again, perhaps this was precisely the intention. Maybe it was specifically crafted to target a younger audience, who would be more captivated by its simplicity and the magical elements it presented.

After all, children often have vivid imaginations and are more open to the idea of dreams and nightmares being influenced by various mysterious forces.

So, while it might not have had the same depth and complexity as some of her other works, it still managed to tell an engaging story that could potentially spark the curiosity and creativity of young readers.

Overall, it was an enjoyable read that offered a unique perspective on the world of dreams and nightmares.
