A Wrinkle in Time

A Wrinkle in Time

by: Madeleine L'Engle

The journey of reading this miraculous book began in 5th grade when it was introduced to my class by a parent. We only read a few pages when we were unfortunately interrupted. When I saw this book on the booklist I knew this was the one I wanted to read. This book begins with children in a house at somewhere around midnight, most are asleep except for the eternal goofball named Meg. This family is the Murry family consisting of a Meg, her very smart brother Charles the twins named Denny and Sandy and their parents. The plot of the book centers around a journey where Meg, Calvin, and Charles are attempting to find Mr. Murry who has disappeared when he was on a trip to study the fifth dimension of time travel.

The quote I think explains the conflict in A Wrinkle In Time is in the part when IT, a brain is controlling all off Camazotz and sadly Charles Wallace has been caught in IT's mind too. Meg is trying to figure out what she has that IT does not have. IT has everything Meg thinks, IT has a huge brain, a town and everything else you could ever want. She just stands there thinking deeply until she finally gets an idea, IT does not have love, he does not have love. This reverberates through her head until she has an idea, if she puts as much as she can into her love it might destroy IT and save Charles Wallace. So with tears dripping out of her eyes she yells "I love you Charles! I love you! I love you! I love you!" (A Wrinkle In Time, pg. 208)

A Wrinkle In Time centers around a timeless battle. The battle between good and evil. This book will fill your soul and let your mind run free. You will want to set your mind free again to hear the miraculous story of A Wind In The Door. You'll be wondering can Meg defeat the forces of evil that is yet to come. We'll find out in the sequel A Wind In The Door. A Wrinkle In Time would be recommended to anyone from the ages of 11 to adult that love adventures ,high suspense and survival encounters. I think everyone that reads this book will cherish it for the rest of their lives! At least I know I will.

I chose "Absolutely Normal Chaos because it is teen drama. It is mostly about a 13 year old girl who is growing up and realizing the changes in her life. Such as starting to like boys and friends and drama becoming very important in her life. In Middle School is when mostly your life changes and feels different . So i wanted to just learn about how it felt and if the changes will affect you. So, that is why i chose this book.

"Alex pressed his hand against mine, i like you you" he said. The conflict between Mary Lou and Alex is that he likes her and he just told her. Mary Lou hasn't been in a relationship before better yet talked to a boy! She just sat there not knowing what to say. At the end they just walk home together, not knowing if they are a couple. If you want to know what she says you will have to read the book.

I have to say i didn't really like this book. The reason is it didn't get to a very exciting point. It just went on and on telling every little detail of what is going on. i would recommend this book to a person who likes romantic teen drama. Lastly, i want to say i do really appreciate the author of this book, Sharon Creech!
