Last night I dreamed of Edward Cullen. I've finished the Twilight-book yesterday
Yes, I often cross him over with my all time favourite character (Arkarian from the Guardians of Time trilogy
) in my dreams - as in, I take my favourite bits of each, discard the rest, and voila! It's rather strange, I must admit, and I sort of dozed off in French the other day. When I woke up there were these boys sniggering at me, which made me wonder if I sleep-talk.

All the time if I get into a book, or program, I always dream of being in that world and a lot of the time kissing the characters.
Yeah, fictional characters are just so easy to fall in love with, aren't they?

I've read Airman by Eoin Colfer. - I think I remember being impressed.
Ooh, that's encouraging. I think I'll be reading that after the knife of never letting go.
Although one of my friends is saying that it's not too exciting

Haha
On another note I got a really nice email from Keith Gray the other day. Reading this prompted me to email him about when he read at out school and such like. He's a super nice chappy. x
Oh, I know which one it is now. It's The Knife of Never Letting Go. Because I'm reading it at the moment I can tell you that on the side of the white copy it says "Chaos Walking Book One".

Oh, that's interesting. I once dreamt about reading one of my favourite ever books. And when I woke up and went to the library the next day, I found that the words from the book were the same as the ones in my dream. I guess I must be subconsciously memorising passages.
But that was only once. Didn't happen ever again.

I'm a deep sleeper too, I can usually sleep through half of my alarm clock alarm and another half of my mobile ringtone... But I always remeber what I dream... Although sometimes I have more two dreams in a night and the next morning I can only remember one. And I know this because I sometimes catch glimpses of the forgotten one when I'm in a trance 0.o

It just suddenly came to me, because on Friday night I had a really weird (well, weirder than usual) dream that was a cross between Up the Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton (which I read many years ago) and another film I saw on television a few days ago...
Does this happen to you? Because i find that if I don't read fiction for a week or so my nights begin getting dreamless...

Beauty is brilliant. I never knew she wrote a book called Rose Daughter, but I can assure you that her books are all very compelling. Spindle's End is a retelling of Sleeping Beauty. Sometimes she changes bits, and goes off the straight and narrow path of fairy tales. But it's all good.

On another note, my school did that Carniege thing years ago. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone won by like, miles unsuprisingly. I think quite a few of them sound quite interesting tbh. Like BookJumper I'm older but occasionally dabble with yound adult books and more often than not I'm pleased with what I find. The only thing that matters is if the language is adult and not... mmm, too basic I suppose.
Oh, yes. We were talking about that the other day, and how they don't tend to pick books from series or trilogies or you get the point.
But there is one on there that's the first of a trilogy.
...But I can't remember the title
-
Yeah, quite good. Historical, with mystery.
Hmm... I suppose these wouldn't interest adults too much (I am assuming that you are older than me)... They're meant for readers ages around 11-16 or something like that...
