Book One Project

            “Hello, lovely reader! Would you like to experience the extraordinary feeling of living in the ‘Room’? But listen up, it’s not just a room, it’s the Room, that’s right, the one and only! Our fantastic management board allied with several writers and artists to create a fun and interactive way to get involved with popular books on a whole new level. Our new project "Room Hotels" speaks for itself, we have created 20 replicas of the famous dorm from the book "Room" by Emma Donoghue. The place can vary from Original (Small) and Medium to Large and Extra-Large sizes. Contact our ‘Room Hotels" customer service at (311-333-1357) or visit our site at www.DonoghueH.com  to sign up for the stay. Your occupation of a single room can vary between a day and two weeks, during that time, you will be provided with the same exact supplies given to Jack and his Ma (Amount of supply differs based on the number of people per Room). Visit any time of the year! Because the room is always near!"  Now this is how I would advertise my new project.

            Basically the idea is rather simple and ... weird. Imagine reading a book, the plot is intense, feels like something new and you are so thrilled about it, you wish you just were in the book! What could be better than actually experiencing what the characters feel to actually understand their position? The idea of "Room Hotel" was a smart choice of investment from the start. A large portion of nowadays readers is very impulsive and just love their experiences with good books, they want a piece of it. Something an object as small as a scarf, or some "artifact" from the book doesn’t satisfy the fandom. Actually getting the experience would be the right choice if someone wants to go big, and truly comprehend the pressure of being in the characters position. Also because this is such a brand new idea it is bound to get some attention, thus bringing a larger audience to the project and the book itself. After all, if the book really sells well, you can always expect at least some costumers.

            Financially speaking, the idea is pure gold. At start, a little investment in the idea is the best way to go, observe how popular the project goes, and the benefits earned from it. The fact that the room is rather well described in the book itself can very much be beneficial for the readers’ total experience and a simpler way for the designers to manage the rooms. The main events take place in the first half of the book, the rest is what follows up the events. During Jack’s and his mother’s stay in the room, they have experienced a lot, and had so many little things even though they lived in a small eleven square feet room. Jack often described the room, allowing the reader to visualize and feel the story better. He uses a lot of "child" language, but still manages to explain everything perfectly. These are a couple of examples of how he describes the room: "Wardrobe is wood, so I have to push the pin an extra lot. I shut her silly doors, they always squeak, even after we put corn oil on the hinges."(P.6) this quote has a perfect example of imagery, you can almost see the stains of corn oil on the hinges of an old wooden wardrobe. In the “Room Hotel” the designers should place such a huge wardrobe, to make the visitors experience the same feelings as Jack did. “We try to fill Bath but after the first bit the water comes out all icy so we just wash with cloths. It gets brighter throughout Skylight only not very. TV Doesn't work too, I miss my friends."(P.94) This quote is a perfect example of how Jack and his Ma had felt during the time Old Nick turned off their power supply and tortured them, the quote also possesses good examples of imagery. So, the Room in the “ Room Hotel” deserves an old and non-working TV. Another great example "We stand beside Table and look up, there's the most  hugest round silver face of God. So bright, shining all of Room, the faucets and Mirror and the pots and Door and Ma's cheeks even", here Jack and his Ma are up at night before the "Great Escape" and she is showing him the beauty of the moon. So, the  room in the “Hotel Room” could have different illumination at different periods of time, to make the fans feel the atmosphere of the room in the book. All of the examples shown from the book possess the attraction of this feeling of being captive, but still able to live the life at most possible, this is the feeling that the reader is most attracted to.

In a book where half the events are happening in a room there isn't much else to create for the fans than experience, the experience of being in the situation alike to that of the characters, so that’s where the idea of "Room Hotels" came from. We hope you enjoyed our all new and thrilling idea and decide to come visit sometime! Thank you for your time.
