Re: Favorite Childhood Reads

tbh I'm still so mad she updated the books and changed things like the tech/tweaked scenes to bring them closer to modern. I still have the originals and I stick with them because... IDEK. It feels like a tragedy to me to change a book to bring it in-line with modernity.

My fav. childhood reads were probably the babysitter's club books though I really don't remember much about them except the one where Mary-Anne wins the lottery (I think it was her) and they all go one a ~fancy trip~.

I actually really respect that she listened to feedback from autistic readers and rewrote Darryl's character and arc in A Wizard Alone so that Darryl wasn't a stereotype and wasn't "cured" of his autism in the end.

And while I can take or leave the tech updates, I feel like at least she knew what she was talking about on the tech front since I think she does/did her own website coding and stuff.

There are authors out there that would've sprinkled in some smartphones and misapplied "modern" slang and called it a day.

DA. I'm always very conflicted about Darryl because I'm neurodivergent and fuck it, if I could have a cure and be normal, I'd take it in a heartbeat. I get not everyone feels that way though.

AYRT--so am I, but the things I want cured are specific symptoms like executive dysfunction, anxiety, and generalized ataxia/klutziness/shit fine motor control. Curing the other stuff would possibly make me into a different person; maybe even someone I'd dislike.

When I was younger I think I would've taken a "cure," except I had no idea what specifically was wrong with me. I still don't have a diagnosis, but even knowing terms for my symptoms helps.

I read a bunch of the Babysitter's Club books, but the only ones I remember clearly are Kristy's Big Day and Claudia and the Mean Janine.
