Suppose... suppose we have only dreamed and made up these things like sun, sky, stars, and moon, and Aslan himself. In that case, it seems to me that the made-up things are a good deal better than the real ones. And if this black pits of a kingdom is the best you can make, then it's a poor world. And we four can make a dream world to lick your real one hollow.

Terminé esta relectura al fin y LLORO porque no quiero leer La última batalla, #traumas. Tengo que ser sincera: me gustó pero... no tanto. La historia, si bien es fuerte, tiene puntos súper débiles y las resoluciones se me hicieron todas deus ex machina, así que casi no pude disfrutar las últimas 100 páginas. Obvio que el fuerte de Narnia son los primeros libros, but still, se me hizo raro no disfrutar de este libro.

My favorite of the series and I find I focus more on Jill’s struggles when I reread. It is so easy to get caught up in the circumstances and not listen to Aslan’s voice.

I find that I am not a big fan of Jill Pole or Eustace Scrubb's characters. This made this book not very interesting for me. I thought that the Marsh-wiggle was very interesting though. Again, this book was simple and I didn't like that the Pevensies' weren't in the book.

I remember I read this book as a child and I know I really enjoyed it, though it wasn't my favourite of the series. I do want to reread it someday though to have more clear thoughts on it as a book, rather than simply as part of the series as a whole. Let me know if you think that it's worth doing!
