Inspired by the idea that dreams may be more than fleeting illusions, that they might be glimpses into other lives and other worlds, her work explores the subconscious and the stories it holds. A lifelong reader, Nora has always been drawn to immersive fictional worlds, often losing track of time somewhere between the final page and her own imagination. She is currently studying psychology and counseling, interests that shape her writing through themes of obsession, desire, love, and the quiet, complicated process of healing. When she is not writing, Nora can be found reading while it rains, painting, hiking, or daydreaming about fictional stories more often than most people probably should.Lucidium is her debut novel and the beginning of a larger series.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Nora Paige \/ Paperback \/ English","offer_id":48840794898589,"sku":"9798234091024","price":28.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/files\/img_c259d8b9-b9d3-4ad6-abc7-3f73b86524c4.jpg?v=1787726930","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/lucidium-9798234091024","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
