We had friends growing up obsessed with this book and I think I lust have just missed the boat on it. Talking with my husband he said it's probably the best book to explain metaphysics to a seven year old but misses the mark for adult readers.
I enjoyed this novel, although it’s most certainly not aimed at me as a reader. It’s a sweet story that first introduces the concepts of science fiction and fantasy novels to younger readers. If I’d read this earlier in my life, I think I would have greatly appreciated it. It does contain some ver...
A Wrinkle in Time is still one of my favorite books to re-read as an adult.Written by Madeleine L'Engle and published in 1962 it was seen as controversial when first published. I remember finishing this book when I was 11 and sitting and thinking about a tesseract and distant worlds. I loved the wor...
I am of the impression that I'm one of the minority who either just didn't like this book, or who didn't understand the grandness of this book. I don't know which it is; take your pick.Maybe I'm just a pretentious bitch who doesn't like classics because they're classics. Or maybe not all classics ar...

In this story two children, Meg and Charles Wallace, along with their friend Calvin, meet three extraordinary extra-terrestrials who take them on a journey to save their father who is being hel...
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle is one of my favorite books from childhood. In this story two children, Meg and Charles Wallace, along with their friend Calvin, meet three extraordinary extra-terrestrials who take them on a journey to save their father who is being held prisoner on another pl...
I went into this book thinking I would enjoy it, and...I didn't. It had the elements of what I did like in a fantasy book: aspects of science fiction, smart characters, and a rich setting. However, there were a couple elements that just killed it for me. First, the characters were very flat. I und...
I'm not entirely sure how this is the first time I've ever read this classic YA novel, but it was about time. While I did find a few places that seemed to drag just a bit, and I could very much tell that this novel was written in a different era, my overall impression was that this is a great piece ...
I think maybe this was one I should not have reread as an adult. I remember loving it as a 4th grader, but listening to it recently as an adult, I was disappointed - perhaps I had built it up too much between then and now.
I've never read the original book but I thought this graphic novel was very accessible and it did make me want to read the other books in the series. I have been a fan of Hope Larson's art style since I happened to pick up 'Mercury' randomly one day. I really like the whole feel of it. The blue-gray...
