A Wrinkle in Time

I just finished reading A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle. This is another classic that I never got around to reading when I was a kid. This may sound strange, but that’s not the reason I chose to read it now. I actually read it because it’s one of the books from Lost. My wife and I recently became hooked on Lost, and we’ve watched the entire series over the last couple of months. Since we are seriously addicted to the show, we of course have to read the books referenced in the show as well (yeah, I guess we are huge nerds).

Anyway, regardless of the reason for reading it, A Wrinke in Time is a great book and a quick, easy read. It has an interesting combination of a sort of fantasy and sci-fi theme. I don’t want to give away any of the details, so I’ll leave it at that. I sort of got a C.S. Lewis, Chronicles of Narnia feeling from the book. I can definitely see a relationship to Lost as well, again I won’t mention any details in case you haven’t read the book or seen Lost.

I enjoyed it very much and I definitely recommend reading it.
