Who would like this book? Any gender, any age, definitely the one for ones who like sci-fi/fantasy books.
Why?
It’s because it has an E-rated plot and is very fast-paced and has thrill in it. Meg, the main character, alongside her brother Charles Wallace and her friend Calvin O’Keefe, sets on an incredible journey that will change her and the whole world’s fate. The ‘Black Thing’ is their main target. To win this game, they must first fight off what the people in ‘Camazotz’, a planet that has given up the fight with the ‘Black Thing’, call IT. The people in ‘Camazotz’ say that IT is their Central central intelligence, but the trio does not know who or what it is. Will they be able to find its identity and, more importantly, be able to fight ‘IT’ off?! This book is really all about love and caring for family members unconditionally. I think that’s what makes this book fit for everyone.
