"When You Reach Me" by Rebecca Stead is a captivating novel set in 1970s New York City, centering on Miranda Sinclair, a sixth-grader whose life takes a mysterious turn. As she navigates friendships, family dynamics, and the challenges of growing up, she begins receiving enigmatic notes that seem to predict the future. Alongside her fascination with the time-traveling concept presented in "A Wrinkle in Time," Miranda uncovers connections between the messages and her own life. The story intertwines themes of friendship, loss, and the complexity of time, leading to a poignant and surprising conclusion that reshapes her understanding of love and sacrifice.
