A Wrinkle in Time: Explanation of Choice

I am reading A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle. If I'm being honest, I have tried to read this before but didn't manage to read more than the first chapter. Last time I read it, I found the beginning slow moving and switched books because it was too boring.  When I was deciding what to read I first looked on Amazon for book suggestions. Another book by Madeleine L'Engle An Acceptable Time showed up and I was interested. An Acceptable Time was part of the Wrinkle in Time quintet, so I would have to start at the beginning.  When I pulled A Wrinkle in Time out again, the first thing I noticed was the cover. The cover is illustrated with the main characters and parts of the setting. Now that I'm reading the book, this is helpful to understand the character features being described, but when I was picking out the book I just thought it looked nice.

I am currently 80 pages into my reading, and I don't regret my choice to reread A Wrinkle in Time. The beginning is better then I remember, although there were sections I had to read multiple times to understand. I think the reason I could never finish this in the past is because of the details, you really  need to pay attention to what's going on in the book. For any reader's interested in this novel here is the back cover:
" It was a dark and stormy night.Out of this wild night, a strange visitor comes to the Murry house and beckons Meg, her brother Charles Wallace, and their friend Calvin O'Keefe on a most dangerous and extraordinary adventure- one that will threaten their lives and our universe. "
