A Wrinkle in Time - reading

Finished "A Wrinkle in Time" by Madeleine L'Engle. This is old-school fantasy from 1962, and it is starting to show its age. It took probably half the book to really get going, and at 190 pages total, it was over quickly. I was amused that it began with "It was a dark and stormy night," a phrase from 1830 that has been referenced in several stories and popularized more recently by Snoopy in Peanuts.
