My steps:
Crop
Levels
Contrast
Healing Brush on my blanket and head
Burned a bit on the eye
Desat a little red and yellow and totally desat blue and cyan
Burned the blanket a bit to remove sparkles
Layer via copy, heavily saturate reds, used history brush on all but the book cover
Adjusted hue sat again bumped skin colour back up a bit
Resized for challenge

Well, OMG! means Oh My Goodness! or Oh My God! I thought it appropriate when reading a Steven King novel :) I hit the cable release with my right toe because I needed both my hands LOL!
I am hoping to at least break a 4... my skills are dying lately LOL!

That look is priceless ... a great candid representing fear. OMG is definitely portayed here. Unfortunately the image has a snapshot feel to it that detracts from the overal quality (hard flash, focus not on the face but on the book, no sense of composition, etc). Still ... great capture.
