I think the author did a great job with this book. The book was well thought out from the beginning with clues of ending without messing up the storyline. I feel like this author planned everything from start to end. All her ideas that were presented was clear and understandable. When she wanted you to feel happy she does it with words that spark up your day and when she wanted you to feel sad, she develops the darkness of the book. The characters in the books are strong, she ended the story with the same characters as she had started. In my opinion, the theme of the book was so cliche. She used an idea of love as the power of everything. As I said this before, the book hinted about the cliche, but as a reader, we did not want to believe this, we would think the author would have something better for us.

I would recommend this to readers my age, teens. The words and concepts of the book are hard to understand but for teens with open minds, this should be easy to understand. I would not recommend this to any younger than 14 because of the complicated concepts of the book. I would not recommend this to anybody who is older than 18 because they would not have an open mind for this book. This book gives you ideas that you have to accept, not fight. It would make you feel exasperation if you try to fight with the concept of the book.

One quote from the book that helps clear out the book would be “ Do you think things always have an explanation?” (L’Engle 56). This quote relates to the book because it tells the reader that not all things must have an explanation. When the reader is reading that part of the story, we feel a feeling of surrender, we just let the ideas go through without a thought about it.

Another quote from this book that clears up the storyline would be “There’s always a possibility.” ( L’Engle 142). This book as an endless possibility as to how it ended, but it just chose the most cliche one. I do not blame this author for choosing the most used cliche but it is really overused.
