It's funny - the BSC itself in my childhood is a huge source of nostalgia, but so is discovering the fandom, and the first time I "re-connected" with all the books. It's like I'm nostalgic for the fandom *as well* as the original childhood experience. I miss the time when all the BSC blogs were new and fans were first finding each other. Nostalgia, 2.0! I agree with others who have said that you kind of run out of things to discuss. But I still love diving into both the books and fandom every once in a while when I need a fix, it's all kind of bittersweet tho, isn't it?

I didn't even have the internet back when I was reading these books the first time around

Me neither! I guess it would have been about 1991 when I started...my first book was Dawn and the Impossible Three

I totally agree with this - it seems like circa 10 years ago, the nostalgia movement started up - RPGs, fanfic and boards were on fire. Now it has died down, and I'm nostalgic for the nostalgia!

I love finding people who have the same obsessions I do. I wish I can meet these people in real life too just to hang out.
