Weird..
So- I read a lot. Most of you know this.
I'm currently plugging through The Handmaid's Tale, by Margaret Atwood.. it's having a very strange effect. I'm usually pretty good at putting a book down and leaving it until I pick it back up. That is to say, I won't be thinking about it constantly, and it won't affect me while I'm not reading it. I DO have trouble putting really good ones down at all!
Anyway- For the past two nights, I have had stressful and uncomfortable dreams full of people telling me what to do, and how to 'follow the rules'. I don't like the rules, and I don't want to follow them- but I have to. These dreams are totally stressing me out.
Now, I'm certain that I'm having them because of this book. I'm just really, REALLY surprised that this book it having such an effect on me!! Apparently I am so bothered by the content that I'm trying to deal with it in my sleep. That is VERY unusual.
Anyhow- I just thought I'd share. Anyone else have this problem when they read this book?
