I really like the fantastical dream-like feel of this whole story! From the increasingly surreal imagery, to the ending where it's questionable whether it really was all a dream. The wanderer's troubles are really relatable, and I'm happy that it seems that by the end they're feeling a bit better about life! (or at the very least well-rested) Finally, I just wanted to say how much I adore that the wanderer's book is filed under their preferred name. On the surface they may seem like such a small detail, but I feel like it really does add so much to their character and this story. Great book!

I'm a sucker for dreamy, Sandman-esque stories. Loved the description of the library. It would be nice to get to know our protagonist a bit better though, that would make their struggle and its eventual resolution connect all the better.

This story made me think of the Pagemaster, and in a good way.  It’s very charming.  The Library of Dreams, Owen the Owl, Reyna and the other Ravens; it’s all very warm and welcoming.  It’s a creative approach to the story.

I would have liked more in the story for sure: more showing the protagonist’s dream and the context surrounding it for instance.  And when the protagonist so quickly after starting to talk about all the sleep and study issues, it seemed sudden.  That could easily be fixed with more build-up narration, showing more agitation and such before it happens.

This was easy to follow and very pleasant as a read.  Dare I say, it’s cute even.  And I really like how the dreams are portrayed in general, including the way decay and such occurs.
