A Magical TRANSMISSION disguised as a story
Just WOW. The Jar of Dreams had such a profound impact on me that I honestly couldn’t put it down for the first few nights! It's been years since a book has had this affect on me.
I was so drawn in, so excited, and so captivated by the world Alan has created that, ironically, it even started to affect my sleep. The story quite literally found its way into my dreams.
Alan has created such a unique, beautiful and colourful experience. From the very first sentence, I felt pulled straight into the story. There was something about it that returned me to a childhood part of myself I had almost forgotten. A part that still believes in mystery, magic, imagination and hidden worlds.
The characters and storylines felt like more than just characters and storylines. They felt like awakenings. Like potent transmissions disguised in language simple enough for the everyday person to understand, but potent enough to reach somewhere much deeper inside. This book really offerings a commentary to disrupt us all from our "sleeping state" that so many of us fall into . . .
One of my favourite lines "busy is for people too scared to face their truth." What a comment! So true. So observational. So relevant. It hit me to the core and that was just in the beginning.
The opening line on the back cover says:
“Everything was normal until the shadow visited me in my nightmares. In the darkness, it stole my dreams.”
So potent. So exciting. So inviting!
I felt completely lost in the magic of The Jar of Dreams. I’m already looking forward to reading it again, and I can’t wait to see what comes next in the sequel. Thank you Alan for your commitment to releasing your magic into the world for all of us to reawaken our unlived dreams.
