Since the last blog post, many events have occurred like Heather being able to hypnotize Orr. She becomes successful at hypnotizing him with the intention to let him rest but also allowing him to dream something that won't harm reality. However, that does not happen because she is not specific with her dream, she told him to dream of a world where aliens are not on the moon but she left it at that. In his dream, the aliens have now landed on Earth and problems are following. Orr later decides that he needs to go to Haber to change reality once again because the aliens are invading earth which are causing problems. It later turns outs that the aliens were actually peaceful and were just having a hard time communicating with humans. Orr dreams once again and aliens are seen as ordinary but now everyone has the same gray skin color. Heather does not exist anymore and Haber has started to record his brain waves. A few dreams later of altering reality where Heather is Orr’s wife and Haber learns to make anyone have effective dreams. This would obviously call for chaos leading the world starts to melt. Orr decides to turn off Haber’s machine leading the world in pieces it eventually everything becomes normal. Orr later works for an alien’s store and Heather walks in.
In one of Orr's dreams, he dreamt that everyone was equal and there was no race instead everyone had a gray skin color. I found it interesting how in Orr’s new reality everyone has the same skin color. This, however, solves one problem but then creates another. In our world racism is still very much alive but I believe that this book is able to display what would happen if we were all the same skin color. I think that it was really fun reading this book because it was interesting reading about the different dreams. I would never know what the dream could be about since it all depended on Haber and Orr, so there was no way of know. Additionally, I believed that it interesting to see that Haber and Heather were not specific with their dreams, they think about the outcomes and tried to avoid them from happening. I would definitely recommend this to a friend it was such a good read. I will comment on Angeli's and Matthew's blog.

I really liked reading your connection what would life be like if we didn't have a race or religion. My question for you is do you wish that they made a series to this book and/or a movie according to this book?

After finishing the book, what is something you were not expecting to happen?

I think your connection to racism is very prevalent and makes a lot of sense! I'm glad you saw the different take the book took when describing a world without race. How do you think you could individualize yourself if you lived in a world without race?
