A good read and enlightening look into the greater world of Narnia. However, even rereading as an adult this is the slowest and least eventful book of the series I think. I like the added aspects into Aslan’s character but parts go by a bit slowly. Still enjoyable but my least favorite of the Narnia series

For some reason, I just really love this book out of the series. The plot is adventurous and fun and I like where it is set during the Pevensie's reign. It was even better than I remembered, and though I figure most people find it boring, I love it!

I forgot how much I enjoy this story! Shasta is simply the cutest and I love his growth throughout the book! Bree will always be in icon and he provides so much comedic relief through the whole story. I really loved Aslan's role in this story! Pushing them beyond where they thought they could go and having a hand in their lives from the very beginning. I just love the way CS Lewis makes Aslan so tangible!!

A more cohesive and engaging story, but yikes to the potential racism
