 When You Reach Me
comment
It's 1979 and twelve year old Miranda, while helping her mother prepare for a stint on The $20,000 Pyramid, is thinking of all the events that happened the previous fall. If it was up to her, she'd probably not think about them. But then there are the notes asking her to do just that, to write down everything that happened last fall. Notes telling her that someone is coming to save both a friend and their own lives. Notes from a time traveler.When You Reach Me is a 2009 novel by Rebecca Stead with allusions to A Wrinkle in Time. Despite its time traveling elements and mystery, the book is at heart a Coming of Age novel that subtly deals with social issues, racism, and the quiet dangers of late seventies New York. It won numerous awards, including the Newbery Medal.

Naked on Arrival
 When You Reach Me / int_17fe1048
comment
Naked on Arrival: As described in Can't Take Anything with You above. At one point during the climax, Miranda even sees a naked man appear and then disappear. This was due to the Laughing Man appearing from the future. In fact, it is likely all of the times they were locked in school due to a naked man seen nearby were all the same thing.

Domed Hometown: Discussed by the Laughing Man when he talks about the "burn scale", possibly a reference to what is known as the U.V. Index. He laments that they haven't put the dome up yet. The fact that he's a time traveller and probably referring to future events paints the future rather bleakly.

It was also implied that the teachers didn't tell the officers where the dentists' office was.

Can't Take Anything with You: One of the later notes hints at this, saying "A man can only hold so much paper in his mouth." This seems to extend to clothes as well, which is why the Laughing Man is always seen naked when he travels to the past.

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Julia could be a jerk at times, even to Annemarie and especially to Miranda, but she truly cared for Annemarie. Miranda even found out that part of how Julia treated her was how she had treated Julia in the past and, after making the first move, Miranda did find Julia to be nice.

Only Friend: Deconstructed Trope.

At the end of the book, both of them have made plenty of friends, while still being close to each other.

How We Got Here: The story starts in the present, at least April 1979, (and told in the present tense). The story is Miranda narrating the story that she would tell from Sal getting punched to the fateful chase and death as that was the story she was tasked to write down.

Foreshadowing: Annemarie eats pizza by tearing off all the cheese and only eating that. It's later revealed she's on a diet for her epilepsy and she's not supposed to eat bread. After Marcus punched Sal, Miranda mentioned it looked like he was reading her poster about why humans yawn. One of the notes answers her question. Marcus tells Miranda that, if you from fifty years in the future were to travel back in time to your current self, you might not even recognize them as you. This is exactly what happened with the Laughing Man: Marcus as an old man traveled back in time, and his child self didn't even recognize it as him.

Fridge Logic
 When You Reach Me / int_9dfd7154
comment
Fridge Logic: An In-Universe example, discussed in regards to A Wrinkle in Time. The three Mrs. Ws promise Meg and the boys that they should be back "five minutes before you left." But as Marcus points out, if this is true then Meg should have seen herself returning, because Meg and co. landed in the garden, in plain sight from the wall, where they left. Marcus is arguing a Stable Time Loop is in effect, while Miranda (very defensive of her favorite author) maintains that the future hadn't happened yet, so of course they wouldn't be seen. There is a simpler explanation, which no one In-Universe notices: Mrs. Whatsit says they'll be back five minutes before they left, unless "something goes terribly wrong." And something does indeed go terribly wrong.

Connected All Along: Happens In-Universe to Marcus. He recalls the day he punched Sal, and has an epiphany that the girl carrying the poster was Miranda. Miranda is shocked he hadn't realized that sooner. The Laughing Man becomes transfixed with Marcus whenever they cross paths. Marcus doesn't know it, but it's because they're actually the same person. The kids have to stay in the school cafeteria twice because some crazy dude is running around naked. That crazy dude is the Laughing Man delivering Miranda's notes, and he's naked because he can't take clothes with him when he travels back in time. In the ending, Miranda heavily implies the Laughing Man/Marcus survived off eating Annemarie's perfectly good lunch that she tossed in the trash for months.

Writers Cannot Do Math: The Tuesday after Thanksgiving is referred to as the first cold day in December. This takes place in 1978 and Thanksgiving was on November 23, meaning that Tuesday would be on Nov. 28. Marcus exacerbates this by telling Miranda to imagine she went to the movies the previous week, "December whatever". While he is a Cloudcuckoolander, Miranda does not correct him, which she is known to do.

Unfortunate Names: Miranda hates that she was named after a criminal. Her mother was in law school in 1967, when Miranda was born.

No Antagonist: The book really was about the usual goings-on of a sixth grader and her friendships combined with the mystery of who was writing her the notes.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Wheelie, the school secretary, knows all of the students, what class they are in, and even who is absent. But when the police come looking for Marcus, Miranda realizes just how bad the situation is when Wheelie asks them to repeat his name and ask what grade he is in.

Jerkass: Jimmy, who makes fun of Chinese people and kicks Julia out of his store because he believes she will steal (based on the fact that she's black) despite the fact she's rich.
