L’Engle, Madeline. A Wrinkle in Time. New York: Random House, 2005. 238 pages. (Fantasy Series)Meg Murry is different, to say the least. Her parents are geniuses, yet she is basically failing. Her father, Mr. Murry, is gone. Everyone suspects that he’s gone with another woman, yet Meg and her family know he’s on a secret trip involving science. Then there’s Charles Wallace. He’s Meg’s little brother and he has an incredible mind. He’s able to understand things so complex, that if a normal human could understand those things, their brain would overload. They all live pretty normal lives, but their lives are about to get a little wacky. They’ll travel through space, land on scary planets, meet strange creatures, have their minds taken over, and they’ll return at the same time that they left, that is if they return at all…
This book was pretty good. It wasn’t one of those books that you never want to put down, but you did want to find out the ending and I did enjoy it. Don’t be alarmed if you get confused at first (or throughout the whole thing) by the big, made up, scientific concepts. It’s supposed to be that way. A very interesting book- truly out of this world!
