"I read this one in middle school as an assignment and enjoy it tremendously. I even read the other books that follow this book. “Many Waters” being another favorite. A fantastical world that was very memorable."

"I loved it as a kid. Reread it as an adult 20 years later and found it incredibly creepy and a bit unsettling, but still couldn't bring myself to dislike it. Take that as you will."

""I don't understand it any more than you do, but one thing I've learned is that you don't have to understand things for them to be."<br/><br/>I kind of wish I would have left this in my childhood. I know I loved it, and it's been at least 12 years since I read it. Now I just feel uncertain about it. I'm not really sure if I get it now. It's fun and not fun at the same time."
