I read this a long time ago with my older kids. I enjoyed sharing it with the younger kids just as much. I had forgotten much of it, but it came back as I read it. A great story.

How fun, I loved the vivid imagery in this story. Really thought I wouldn’t like it but I did!

Thank god I had time to read this in 2 days. So damn boring and none of the characters are interesting save Bree. Aravis sucks, Shasta is annoying, and I literally had to keep reminding myself that Hwin was there cuz she had literally nothing to do except be Aravis' horse.

Cool seeing the Pevensies though as their royal selves.
