I have intended to re-read them for years, feeling fairly certain I would "get it" now. Guess I will have to get to work before the movie comes out. I was the same way with Lord of the Rings - tried reading it in 4th and 5th grade and never really caught on. My little kid mind couldn't take it all in. Loved the movies and feeling guilty that I didn't re-read the books before seeing them. PPB -

We're delving into the religious symbolism of the SW Universe. It's winding to a close (I think) and is actually pretty insightful.

They are incredibly significant in my reading, thinking and theological formation. Interestingly, the Systematics professor at Andover Newton said the last of those was not uncommon! And as some of you know, one of my children is named for Lucy. Okay, she's *named* Lucy, after this particular Lucy, who I wanted to be.

I read them for the first time in college. I wasn't a big fan then, but they grew on me after two or three readings. I really do like them now. Confessing here, too.

Hard to say whether I would have liked them as a child or not... I generally was not into those kinds of books, although I loved Wrinkle in Time, so who knows.
