Re: then there's Jane Austen...
Date: 2004-08-01 05:32 am (UTC)Never heard of "Redeeming Love", but your other three choices give me the impression you really like angst! I mean "The Sparrow" and "Children of God" were really good, and they're on my shelf, but I don't see me re-reading them very often, because they were so harrowing. And I prefer "Speaker For the Dead" over "Ender's Game" because it has a more hopeful feeling.
I recently re-read the Lioness Rampant series, by Tamora Pierce. I remember loving it when I was 13, but it didn't quite live up to expectations at 25. :)
I read those much later than 13, and I didn't like them; too pagan.
Beside, with so many UNREAD books still in the world, and limited reading time, I'd really rather read something new!
With so many books in the world, I know I can't read but a drop in the ocean of them, so I'd rather read something I know I enjoy -- at least some of the time.
