An absolutely wonderful book about a difficult topic, sensitively and thoughtfully explored.

Jane Austen
“I do not want people to be very agreeable, as it saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.”
Jane Austen, Jane Austen's Letters

Nathaniel Hawthorne
“Easy reading is damn hard writing.”
Nathaniel Hawthorne

C.S. Lewis
“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”
C.S. Lewis

Marina Thanks for accepting my request, Amitha!
I'm also a Beantown (outta-town-in-the-burbs) girl.


Amitha I liked all of them, but I really loved when the storyline started to take a darker turn, like with Prisoner of Azkaban. I also liked The Halfblood Prince. But to be honest, it's been a while since I've read them, so I don't really remember the books as well as the movies. I'll have to go back and read them again!


message 2: by Chris

Chris Johnson What do you thinks the best harry potter book. I think I Have to nominate The Prisoner of Azkaban as my favorite of them all. Goblet of Fire's such a close second place, Voldemort coming out in the end was friggin crazy in that.


Maggie Amitha
Thank you for accepting my add request! And congratulations on your writing!! I just finished my first YA book...although I don't have a publishing home for it yet.
