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."
But from ages 10 through 17 or so, I must have walked by that church clutching one of her books dozens of times.
Hil, that's pretty awesome.
I love L'Engle: she's so compassionate. That said, I recall not liking House Like a Lotus much; it's the one where Poly freaks out because an older woman makes a pass at her, right?

I'm rereading "A House Like a Lotus."
I love that one. I had to buy a new copy last year because the old one fell apart from excessive use.
On the list (the good list, not The List), Kat!
