I’m not going to write much of a review for this because other than to say I absolutely loved it, I’ve not got too much to add. Here’s part of the synopsis, in case you don’t know the story: Meg's father had been experimenting with the fifth dimension of time travel when he mysteriously disappea...

I think I read this book when I was much younger, but I had forgotten almost everything about it. I enjoyed it, but it was not as . . . substantial as I remembered it. I read it in 2 or 3 nights, an hour or so at a time - good characters, an interesting premise, but I wished the book had been about...

I enjoyed this, but like many middle-grade books I've read as an adult, I think I would appreciated it more as a middle schooler. There were several aspects of the world not really adequately explained. (I mean why can't the Mrs. Ws go with them to fight IT?? They never give a reason.) Also, the end...

SWEDISH REVIEW Det är en mörk och stormig natt. Tonåriga Meg Murry sitter i sitt rum på vinden, lyssnar på blåsten som river i huset och funderar för sig själv. Hon vantrivs med sin kropp och sitt utseende. I skolan är det mesta jobbigt och krångligt. Och hennes pappa, vetenskapsmannen, har försvu...

This was on my kids summer reading list for 7th grade so I thought I would read it. I don't think much of "A Wrinkle in Time". A good start and a rushed ending. No character development. Even one my daughters was unimpressed. I am sorry if I'm stepping on the toes of some of you with fond childh...

This was one of the first full novels I ever read. It was recommended by the school librarian when I was a 6th grader. I remember a sense of awe and good feelings, but not what the book was about.

This is a hard review to write because A Wrinkle in Time is a children’s book, but my adult brain keeps getting in the way. I vaguely remember a teacher reading this book to my class when I was very young. It must not have had a huge impact on me because all I remembered about it were the three an...

* Loved it, wish I had read it as a child. * Eh, not loving the god bits and the Disney fairytale lesson but I doubt I would've cared as a child. * Reading the foreword was illuminating. Because while I had heard great things about this book and knew it was a classic—no lie—I couldn't be bothered ...

I read this book all the way back in January, and didn't review it then. But I am trying to clean up my Classics Club project and this is one of the books that I read for that project, so here I am, eight months later, writing this post. I first read A Wrinkle In Time when I was around 8 years old...

To be honest, I can't remember many details about this book but I remember my dad giving it to me to read as a child and I remember loving it. I must've read this book at least a dozen times when I was a kid and I can safely say it's responsible for my own love of reading (and probably one of the co...
