Why did I dream about atonement?
I'm a young girl (16) who has been struggling with the idea of religion lately. I sort of believed in God for a while, but it became hard for me and I was leaning over to Atheism, as I think Science is just as magical and amazing as any religion is. (Not to mention much more tangible).
A few nights ago I had a dream, and though I usually do remember my dreams, this one stood out.
In the dream I had been in a bookshop for a little while and I was looking longingly at a shelf, staring at the book Atonement. I know this is an actual book, and has been on my reading list for a while, though to be honest I didn't know the definition of atonement.
Anyway, I became curious and, as anyone who wishes to seek knowledge, I consulted Google.
The book came up as a result, but I had no idea of it's religious meaning -- a reconciliation with God.
Could this be a sign in any sort of way? Or am I looking into this too much? I'd appreciate any help. Thank you!

Jesus paid your sins if you will obey all of his sayings . But if you need more of a sacrifice then you have to wait for the Servant of Isaiah 52 & III Nephi to become marred more than the son of man . For that is when God , the Father , Himself shall redeem mankind .

The sinful nature of man has led him to separation from God.
When Jesus allowed himself to be crucified, he accepted all
of mankind's sins to be payment so we would not have to
pay for them ourselves. To anyone that accepts Jesus'
sacrifice on their behalf, they are instantly reconciled to God.
In your dream, you are being shown that you are looking for reconciliation with God and that it is available to you. It is
easy to obtain by just confessing out loud to God, that you believe that Jesus died for your sins and that God has raised
him from the dead. Then ask Jesus to come into your life and
be your Lord and Savior. Then you will be reconciled to God
forever.

Do you need to be reconciled to God?
That's the thing. That is the reason for the atonement. God being reconciled to us all.
