The Dark Is Rising is always the book we need.
I loved the shit out of these books as a kid. I think they we’re probably the first fantasy I ever read, and I devoured them.
Interestingly I never read those until I was an adult (my husband introduced them to me). I do love them though, and I think the article is spot-on about why they speak to me while, say, the Christianity in A Wrinkle in Time fills me with resistance and rage.
