      "'Your looks do,' Meg said."
      That's from Madeline L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time, and I'm mailny using this as an opportunity to plug the book. I haven't seen it talked about much in the various Fave books posts; I can only assume that's because it is quite ancient (Newbery medal Winner of 1963). However, READ IT! NOW! Do not delay, because it's fantastic.

        I love Wrinkle. It was the first sci-fi type book I ever read. Has anyone heard anything about what happened to the TV miniseries that was supposed to be made of it[]

            Birdhead--I love that whole series. One of the niftiest things about Ms. L'Engle for me is that I have yet to read one of her fiction books that is not somehow linked to another one, even if only by the mention of a name. I've not read all of them by any means, but part of the problem is that some are out of print and very hard to find.

            Inside every cynic there's an idealist desperately yearning to be let out, and when they are let out they're usually a real pain and cause all sorts of trouble. --Chris Boucher

                it says "More detergent and bleach, and i hurried naked through my house and into the shower, where I scrubbed with phisoderm, not an inch spared, not the inside of my ears and nose, or under my nails, fingers and toes, and I brushed my teethe in there."

                long, huh?
