A Wrinkle in Time: The Graphic Novel
by Madeleine L'Engle
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Kirkus reviewed, "A faithfully adapted graphic novel of the beloved 1962 classic, just in time to celebrate its 50th anniversary...(published in 2012)... With a keen eye, Eisner Award winner Larson (Mercury, 2010) doesn't stray a moment from L'Engle's original text...." (My previous review was erased when I hit the wrong key! Darn fingers!) Now, I have to re-read the original L'Engle novel - which I loved as a child in elementary school. And then there are so many movie versions! (some I hear are very disappointing...) and then...and ....TBD! (The downside of working in a Library/ Candy store? or Bakery?....I used to want to literally EAT poems and books and....reading cover to cover makes the imagery vivid but....)

This is my first time reading a book from this author. I enjoyed it from the beginning to the very end. The story is about a star reporter for a big city paper is exactly where she wants to be. When her new job doesn't work out, she returns home back to where she started, working for her sister who is trying to keep The Silver Bay Beacon afloat. The star reported after returning home witnesses an accident that ends in the death of a local congressman, a beloved war hero with a shady past. This story will have surprises, some good and bad. I hope whoever decides to read this enjoys it just as much as I did.

Black Panther Book 6

book cover


It was a very good book and was truly a exciting, excellent, and an exquisite book to read. Feels both fresh and exciting, crafting a distinct identity that stands out against the many other books on the stands. In the book, there was a lot going on and it was kind of hard to connect the pictures to the text. But overall, the book was very good and I look forward to reading the next parts of the books.

In the book Ghosts a girl named Catrina and her sister have to move. Catrina's little sister Maya is sick. She has cystic fibrosis and something that would benefit her would be the cool salty air that blows from the sea. Though Catrina is upset that she has to move and leave all her friends behind. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

The Striker

book cover


Asher Donovan and Scarlett Dubois? Whew. Their dynamic in The Striker is the perfect storm—dangerous chemistry, emotional restraint, and undeniable pull. Asher is intense and calculating, used to control, while Scarlett is elegance laced with steel, never one to be outmaneuvered. Together, they’re fire and friction—two powerful people trying not to fall, but falling anyway. It’s not just spice—it’s a slow unraveling of pride, pain, and real connection.
