This book was first read to me in the 5th grade by our teacher. I remember it being eerie, but I couldn't remember most of the plot. A good book, but for each thing I loved about it there was also a thing I didn't love about it. Some of it felt a little stiff and it wasn't the fastest-paced novel I've ever read. I liked that it was a simple book for young adults but that it actually had depth to it. I liked how the conflicts of the novel were resolved. There's a lot to think about in this novel though I'm not sure I'm a fan of L'Engle's writing style.
