lissa_quonMadeline L'Engle apparently died yesterday.
I loved some of her books, got bored through others but I respected her ability. My favorite book of hers would probably have to be Many Waters, which was the only one I bothered to buy and reread over and over. I think it was the fact she managed to combine biblical characters and theology and make it fascinating.
Which was greatly appreciated by me, who was 13 and going through Lutheran confirmation where I was pretty much convinced that to be a 'good' christian was to be boring and lose all creative spark.
So Godspeed Madeline L'Engle. Hope you find the great beyond as fascinating as your books were to me.
