I keep seeing people say that! I'm sure I've reread it within the last...ten years at least, but even if I hadn't, I have a vivid memory of sitting on a particular chair in the living room of my parents' house, creeped the hell out by the kids all bouncing the balls identically, and the big pulsing brain of IT.
The next time you decide to stab me in the back... have the guts to do it to my face.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I know I've read the whole series, but Wrinkle is the only one I really remember.

I reread A Wrinkle in Time almost every year. I have most of Madeleine L'Engle's books, fiction and nonfiction, and both YA fiction and...what do we call it? Non-YA fiction? Fiction for people old enough to drink? Just...fiction?
I think her dialogue tends toward the ridiculous at times (do people REALLY talk that way???), but in general she's one of my favorite authors.
I am SO excited for the movie. I cried the first time I saw the trailer in a theater.

I love Wrinkle in Time. One of the ways I call asleep is to imagine being snuggled by Aunt Beast.

The current Humble Bundle of books is FULL of Chuck Tingle books (I'm SUPER amused by the bitcoin one): [link]

NEW LESTAT NOVEL IN OCTOBER! I don't care how cracky. I don't care how insane Anne Rice is. I will read it.

Okay, my lovely buffistas, have any of you read Eliza and her Monsters?
Man, does the author get fandom right. It was fantastically fun to read.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Not yet, but after this rec and the description mentioning Nimona I'm sure going to.

Kat, I read it and loved it. And yes the fandom stuff was perfect.
