A Wind in the Door

“Love isn't how you feel. It's what you do. I've never had a feeling in my life. As a matter of fact, I matter only with earth people.”

This is the second book in L'Engle's Time Quintet. As a follow up to A Wrinkle in Time it picks up with Meg and Charles Wallace continuing to discover the connection that they seen to share. While slow to start they story quickly gets interesting and wastes no time at all introducing quirky, but memorable characters to journey with the group. Towards the middle of the book there is a slow down in story progression and the expected character development of Meg takes over. She at times can be quite off-putting due to her whining and immature nature. While I do understand that she is young I did expect a little bit more out of her considering the events of the previous book.

This read is definitely geared towards a teenage audience and deals with some pretty heavy concepts that one around those ages maybe be experiencing or dealing with.
