I just reread this, and it's possibly the best example of a Newbery. It's even better than I remembered. Huge kid appeal, "deft" plotting, and plenty of deeper meaning. Thank you, Newbery Committee!(less)

Could easily have had half the characters, and no one would even notice. Interesting stories are begun and not ended. Was this a self-conscious attempt to set a Jane Austen novel in the present day? That's the only explanation I can think of for some of the weird stuff, like Allegra briefly dating the doctor and then going back to Corinne, all outside the narrative. I haven't seen the movie, but I can't imagine who read this book and thought "Wow, this would make an awesome movie!". (less)

**spoiler alert** Rereading. I don't think I've reread this in a really long time. Despite my major problems with the plot, it's even better than I'd remembered; the writing is really, really good. Finished. Well, it gets muddier and more sentimental toward the end, but still good. But plotwise... man, hard to believe, but it's even WORSE than I remembered. Mostly when I've thought about this book I've focused on the icky way everyone who's supposed to be so open-minded talks about Max and Ursula, and then the Renny/Polly issue. (So much better handled with Justin/Katherine, even allowing that nothing really happened there.) But on this read I noticed how the whole book is, like, a relentless apologia for sexual assault, where a sixteen-year-old girl is supposed to instantly rise above and show forgiveness. I recognize that Max's father doing something similar to her sister is a degree worse, if degrees exist--he was her father, after all, and Max blamed him for MA's death--but Max cherishes that anger her whole life. Polly isn't allowed to. Sandy should have been furious. I've always thought, when I've thought about it, that whoever gave Madeleine L'Engle the idea for this book (and the similar themes in other books) was someone on her periphery, but--well--the apologist nature--okay, I don't really want to think about that too much.(less)

I guess I haven't reread this in a while. The scene where Dorcas tells Katherine about her husband's affair pissed me off. I used to think Katherine was all wise and tough-lovey in this scene. Now I think she was grumpy, uncaring, and kind of stupid. It's fine if you don't want to get involved in someone's life, Katherine, but then just stay out of it, don't go around lecturing her about how she's making too big a deal of it and life would be better if she just tried harder.(less)

The first book was OK; this one isn't as good. The author really hits the reader over the head with a very obvious message (war is bad!) and almost none of the characters are likable. Setting doesn't come alive. Presents both sides of a situation to which there is really only one legitimate side (the newcomers aren't "right, too" when they state that they should be given more food). Not really recommended, though I'll probably read the third book anyway.(less)
