Once I started reading I couldn't stop. I wondered why I had never read the actual book.

I love Wrinkle In Time, so this was an easy read... I was kind of disappointed by Aunt Beast. She's my favorite character and I guess I never pictured her as a Dr. Seuss inspired monster thing.

I haven't read the book. Something about it seemed to put me off. I can't imagine describing in words what this book shows. As Aunt Beast said, there just aren't words for some things. Maybe I could understand the book now after I have read the graphic novel. I thoroughly enjoyed it. What's not to love about a book that starts with "It was a dark and stormy night"?

A Wrinkle in Time is one of very few books I've read more than once. When I saw this on display at ALA a couple years back, I was intrigued but hadn't managed to pick up a copy until now.
Being used to reading manga, I wouldn't say this is one of the prettiest art styles I've seen - but this is to the story's advantage. It helps to capture Meg, Calvin, and Charles in their imperfections.
I think Larson does a good job artistically in showing the story, and seems to align pretty well with how I had imagined things and people looked (except Ms. Whatsit's metamorphosed form...I always dreamed of her being a gorgeous creature. This was close to the version of her portrayed on old book jackets, but I never liked it). It was neat to see someone else's visualization of a story I know and love so much, and kept right in step with the originally written-out book.

I probably need to read the regular version as well.

Well, that was strange. Curious how much I missed from the novel. Looking forward to the movie.

The dialogue is nearly identical to reading the book. However, I'm not really a fan of this style of drawing for graphic novels. It seems lazy.

A good graphic novel adaptation of the classic book. I hope this version leads more readers to the original.
