If you’re a big fan of the characters from the Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, this book might be a bit boring. Didn’t feel that invested in the characters introduced in this book and nothing new was added that we didn’t already know about the world of Narnia

This is the kind of book where the beggining is kind of interesting, but when you keep reading you just get bored and drop the book away. I'm a very organized person, and leaving a book unread gives me nightmares, so that's why I had to finish it. The story itself wasn't of my liking. It's well-written, but the characters aren't that relatable or interesting. It's a pass for me.

I have really enjoyed the last two books in this series but to be perfectly honest this book was uneventful and most of it was fairly boring. However there were parts that I enjoyed. For example, I really liked their journey across the desert and the first couple chapters. I also really liked guessing how this book fits with the other books, but other than that it was boring and I didn’t really like the overall storyline.

Just like the other Narnia books it is a perfect tale with amazing writing, laced with so much moral. C.S Lewis has created this vivid landscape Narnia and through it explores human nature and religion.

Finally got around to finishing this in continuation of my read through of the entire Chronicles of Narnia series. I started off the book not very impressed, I read the story many years ago and so I had a vague remembrance of it and I remembered it in a pretty positive view. However, when I started it this time I was bogged down with boredom. I couldn't really place why I was board, I just wasn't engaged with the plot or characters. I wasn't enjoying my time reading the story. I was pretty confident it would be at best a three star read.

But then I read the last 100 pages or so and I was floored because I had a great time reading. Shasta becomes much more likeable, honestly all of the protagonists do. The plot was engaging and I was excited to see what happened next. There was insightful and funny comments lacing the pages and the fight and wrap up at the end of the book was really satisfying. I liked how all of the encounters with the lion and cat throughout the book was resolved. I was just really impressed. I think I would give this a 3.5 stars if I could, but I'll be willing to give it a 4 here.
