likes: mrs. whatsit, mrs. who, & mrs. which (their characterization, the way they communicate and why, and the world building around what they are), tessaring, and the different planets
dislikes: the writing (very ‘60s), the characters and their relationships (underdeveloped), the lack of action taken by the characters/limited agency, the meandering plot with unanswered questions, and the perpetuation of anti-communist propaganda
