The first time I read this series, I was a kid dealing with the death of one parent and the abuse of the other. The Mysterious Benedict Society's ever-present trope of found families showed me that "family is often born of blood, but it doesn't depend on blood, nor is it exclusive of friendship", and that was exactly what I needed during that time of my life. Now, as an adult, the series holds up surprisingly well. The deep nostalgia and love I have for this series can't be said enough. Every time I reread the books, I get something new from them. All that said, I can't wait to see what Disney+ does with the adaptation!
