If I read this when I was younger, it would have been five-stars, but now I just wish Meg would stop yelling at me. That being said, "Aunt Beast" would be a great name for my hypothetical one-woman metal band.
I liked it well enough especially the first part of the book. I thought the characters of Meg, Calvjn, and Charles Wallace were quite well done and I enjoyed them as characters. I definitely thought that Calvin should have his own book. The Mrs Ws were, not gonna lie, a little creepy and more than a...
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle is my favorite book. It's been over ten years since I have first read the novel, and it has taken me this long to be able to articulate what it means to me. For it was not just L'Engle's wonderful, imaginative story that captivated me, but the relationship betw...
I forgot how completely bizarre this book is. I do enjoy this book but man it is weird. Fantasy books are fun because of how weird things can be. There are no rules so the only limit is the author’s imagination. L’Engle takes the reader on a whirlwind of a ride. I’m not super familiar with children’...

And so nice to see that the adults didn't come in and *save* the kids—no, no, instead the young girl is the hero and saves the day, the brother and the world. Just brilliant. Why have I never read this befo...

Meg is a frumpy girl, out of step with the rest of the kids her age, yet she finds herself embarking on an adventure with her younger brother and a cute boy in tow (what more could a girl...
I'm not sure how I missed this book when I was younger probably because I didn't get into science fiction until my early tweens. I have to say this book is an anomaly at times it was quite childish and then it would seem to be to adult. Very interesting the way the author would throw bits of religio...
This is considered a children's book. However, it is one that I never read as a child nor that I read to my children while homeschooling. It is not the type of book I normally read, since it is also a fantasy tale. However, I really enjoyed the book. It is a tale of good fighting evil in the uni...
