"A Wrinkle In Time"

(Haley, don't read if you are not done with the book)






This is not the normal Book Club book as it was Adriane's daughter, Haley and I that read this book but thought it was a good book to post as a recommended read. Maybe one that our readers could read with their daughter or nieces, like I did. This book was set in my guess the early 1950's, and began with Meg waking up from a storm that was brewing. She went downstairs to see what was going on to find that her brother, Charles Wallace and Mother were also woken up. Their Father had been gone for quite some time and they were beginning to wonder if he was coming back. This was the story of the adventures of Meg, Charles Wallace and Calvin who were taken into a 5th dimensional world looking for their Father. This book sets the emotions of creativity, imagination, the act of courage and the love of human beings and beyond.


This book was just a fun read with the twists and turns of what was going to happen next, and who they were going to encounter next...human or not! When it all came down to one thing, the true love of family!


I am so glad Haley and I decided to do this, and even though it's taken me a little bit longer than I expected to finish it, it has been well worth the wait! I hope Haley enjoyed reading together as much as I did!

Hopefully this March/April, Adriane and I will get started again in our reading adventures!


Until our next book......
