A Wrinkle in Time

TitleA Wrinkle in Time
AuthorMadeleine L’Engle
Call NumberPS3523.E55 W756
RatingHighly Recommended
Book ReviewIn the spirit of the challenge, I chose both a science fiction book written by a woman (I'm calling it SciFi, some may say fantasy.  We can discuss...) and a book from the reading list.
Re-reading this book brought back some great childhood memories.  The themes found in this book are still relevant today - resistance to totalitarianism, nonconformity, the role of science, and defying expectations.
They are making a movie due out in 2018, so read the book first!
