Well, didn't see this coming so long after my tweens/teens but looks like John Green is gonna be life coach again. dftba

Loved it as a child. Loved it as an adult.

Loved. Savored these stories and went back to re-read my favorites when I finished the collection.

Made my little nerd heart sing. Loved every character and loved remembering the theories, the fics, and the community that existed in the time before deathly hallows was released.

The writing is magical and the story was awfully endearing. I found it very comforting. A case of the right book at the right time for me.

I don't normally go for stories like this so the change of pace was refreshing. Spent the first half itching to know how it was going to unfold and the second half slowly mourning the inevitable conclusion. Also it was such a minor part of the story but I loved the Mindy Kaling bit.

Still thinking about this months layer. Still haunted by it.

Not for me. Powerful but hard to read something saturated with pain and violence. Final chapter successfully broke my heart.

Loved it! Opened my heart and eyes in unexpected ways.

This story is simple (in fact, it's for kids) but like the first EarthSea book it filled up my heart. Something about it rang true. I'll return to this story and it's many images when I need a reminder of how and why we climb up out of the dark.

For me these essays were like revisiting all the best parts of my favorite philosophy of sex and gender class. Made me repeatedly go “wow she just put THAT into words.”

Stories that unfold beautifully, simply, sadly.

Quite literally changed my life.
