Nightmares!

Everyone gets them.

They aren’t real.

You always wake up.

Right??

Charlie isn’t so sure.  What he is sure of is his stepmo(m)nster is really a witch and there is a witch who wants to eat him in his nightmares.  Charlie can’t sleep and he can’t tell his friends about his nightmares, they’ll just laugh at him or think he’s going crazy.  So, Charlie keeps it to himself and slowly becomes more paranoid because the witch is going to come for him at any moment.  Finally, she comes, but not for Charlie; she takes his brother Jack to the Netherworld, where your worst nightmares live.  Charlie follows after, but wait…. Charlie isn’t asleep, both his spirit and body have crossed over, this can’t be good.  Now, not only is he living inside his nightmares, but those of his friends as well.  Can Charlie help his friends overcome their nightmares while facing his own fears and saving his little brother?

Back and Feeling Adventurous

Well, it’s been a while since I’ve really posted anything on here.  I apologize for not being able to keep up on my blog during my absence.  Now that I’m back at Yolo and finally caught up from my 3 month substituting gig at Hunt, I can get back to what I love.  What do I love??  I love getting young people reading and helping them find books they want to read.  My goal with this blog is for students to be able to fall in love with reading like I have.  Reading can take you on so many adventures and I would love to share and include you all in my adventures.  So buckle up because I’ve already started and am ready for more.  Are you ready for an adventure?
