"The Westing Game" by Ellen Raskin (again)
I have a rule for myself: I have to wait five years between rereads of The Westing Game. I've had that rule since I first read it 30ish years ago, and I have stuck to it! This rule is born of me reading it twice in quick succession and realizing that much of my enjoyment of the book comes from the quirky surprises it contains. When I remember what is coming, it's less fun for me.This time, Read more of this blog post »

Procure for me at once a chariot or a flying carpet or a well-trained dragon, or whatever is usual for royal and noble persons in your land. Then bring me to places where I can get clothes and jewels and slaves fit for my rank. Tomorrow I will begin the conquest of the world."

This is one of my favorite books. I have a strict rule of not allowing myself to read it more than once every 5+ years because that way, I won't fully remember it, and every re-read will still have a bit of surprise to it. "The Westing Game" is called ...more |

“Writing a book is an adventure. To begin with it is a toy and an amusement. Then it becomes a mistress, then it becomes a master, then it becomes a tyrant. The last phase is that just as you are about to be reconciled to your servitude, you kill the monster and fling him to the public.”
