That's a great quote! LOVE it! And it's true about dystopians... they mess me up that's why I don't read them often, I spend weeks afterward pondering "What if the world really went down the drain like that?"
AS of late Dystopians and the GOT series seem to be the books that have the most effect on me. I'm left pondering them long after I've finished so I know the feeling.
Dystopians are always so creative! I feel a little bit unbalanced too after reading a good book, like I was just plunked back into reality after experiencing something so mind-blowing. Yeah, withdrawal, but chocolate helps! :)
Haha - Yup! So totally true. It's amazing, isn't it? You'd think our own lives would be enough, but no. We have to go and live all these other lives through books too, and isn't it great? I love it.
Me every time I read The Stand! :)
