Very good book about dreams and various ways to analyze/think of them. i found it very easy to read as well as understand. I was able to relate some of the advise from this book to a recurrent dream I am having. I also will be keeping a "dream journal" as suggested. This book is a must for anyone interested in dreams and desires a book that can possibly help them with interpreting that dream. Thanks to NetGalley, the author and the publisher for the ARC of this book in return for my honest review.

Great and entertaining book. We usually dream of something that we don’t understand. This book really gives us a practical guide to make sense of what we are experiencing while sleeping.

An interesting interpretations book that goes beyond the usual x = y. It delves deeper and gives more thorough explanation for analyzing dreams. The reader will appreciate that the author does not just say “if you are dreaming about falling, that means this.” The book is more of a guide on how to think and train your thoughts for interpretation. A good book to add to anyone’s collection particularly if they are interested in dream interpretation. The only downside is that the writing can become tedious and longwinded.

This was an interesting look into dream interpretation that some may find helpful. I could easily see giving this as a gift to friends or relatives with an interest in the subject. I liked the format and the ease of looking up topics, and the interpretations didn't seem outlandish or strange.

I loved the title of this book, "The Curious Dreamer’s Practical Guide to Dream Interpretation". It isn't like a dream dictionary, but rather guides you to interpreting your dreams yourself and discovering what the symbols in your dreams mean to you. We are encouraged to keep a dream journal as well. I really enjoyed this book and if you are interested in dream interpretation you will too.

I would like to thank Netgalley, the author and publisher for providing me with a review copy in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion of it.

This is not the typical Dream Meaning dictionary. The author explains that symbols and images in a dream each carry personal messages and won't mean the same thing to everyone. A rose is not a rose is not a rose. It could have meaning to one based on beauty and another based on the thorns.
Very comprehensive, this is not a book to be read in one sitting. There are exercises to take on to improve your ability to interpret your own dreams.
This is a book for personal growth and transformation. Various sections of the book are repetitive. The purpose is to develop deeper understanding, to learn to trust and listen to your intuition.

A great jumping off point to further study.

A fascinating read. I enjoyed learning about dream interpretation and had quite a time analyzing my own!

I'm not sure how much I believe in dream interpretation, although I do know that at certain times of my life I've had what I interpret as stress dreams.

This book is useful to dip into, especially when you wake up and think, what on earth was that all about?

Thank you to Netgalley for an arc copy of this.

I have always been interested in trying to decode dreams and understanding what dreams mean. This book helps you figure out the meaning of each one of your dreams. It's easy to understand and has so many different meanings of dreams. It's a fun read that is educational.

I found this book very interesting and informative, it's a much more in-depth look at interpreting dreams then Nancy's previous book and I loved it!
Just make sure that you have a note book and pencil handy by your bed to make sure that you remember to write down as much detail as you can.
Thank you

This isn’t a light read so be prepared ...grab a notebook and pen.
This book has extensive examples and methods of interpretating your dreams. The author encourages you to start at the beginning so you build your knowledge of dream interpretation. You will later be able to search by topic. This is a book to keep on your bedside table.
