Read a banned book this week.
"Think for yourself and let others do the same."
In honor of Banned Books Week:
L'Engle's A Wrinkle in time was first published in 1962, and is a classic science fantasy novel, featuring a coming of age story. My teaser follows:
Calvin walked with Meg, his fingers barely touching her arm in a protective gesture."This has been the most impossible, the most confusing afternoon of my life", she thought, "yet I don't feel confused or upset anymore; I only feel happy. Why?"

Mini Review - I must say that I am disappointed in not picking this up when I was reading C.S. Lewis etc. What a great story for a young reader! Adventure, Family, Self-discovery et al in one little book. I couldn't stop reading about Meg and Calvin, which is why I am now beginning the third book in the Time Quartet series. Can't Stop Now!

This week, we have a new story by Neil Gaiman and A Quick Preview of new e-readers coming into the market.
