The more I read of this series, the more there is to love. I'm really enjoying watching Meg and Charles Wallace, and to a lesser extent, Sandy and Dennis grow up. In this novel, Meg is older than I am now, but reading how she still feels like a child and sometimes still sees herself as a child and she's in her parents home it's very relatable. This is the first novel I can remember reading that has a pregnant main character. Having her go with Charles Wallace on his adventures through their ability to connect to one another regardless of geographic and temporal distance, and introducing new pets that have abilities to assist with that connection is a unique and interesting method of story telling that worked really well. These novels do wonderful job humanizing these archetypal adults that played a villain roles in our protagonist' childhoods. They make them into round and interesting characters that readers not only can empathize with, but often come to love.
