This was cute book. It was a good read/listen. The characters were good, I liked some of the new characters but I missed a lot of the side characters from the previous book. The plot was fun and predictable. The writing style was decent. I can see why this book is a classic.

My favorite of the Narnia books so far but it has to be said—the movie did it better.

Of the seven books of the Chronicles of Narnia, Prince Caspian probably ranks sixth for me. It's not bad, and in fact, I can't exactly pinpoint what the problem is. On paper, it takes a shorter time to get going than The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. The plot is more focused than The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. But IDK, something about this one just doesn't work as well as the others for me. The biggest issue is that the story is "split" - I don't think it's much of a spoiler to say that the Pevensie children return to Narnia in the first chapter of this book. After a bit of initial blundering around, the story takes a break to fill us in on the backstory of the titular Prince Caspian, and the rest of the book brings the two storylines together and resolves them.
Overall, still the same delightful writing style, still the same lovable characters from Lion, but just not quite as tight.

like this one more than the first book and no it was not just because of Caspian, but he was one of the main reason. I forgot how much I disliked Susan, sheesh and how much I love Peter and Lucy, Edmund is okay (he's getting better) but I most definitely cried when they said that Peter and Lucy will not be going back, damn. But also cannot wait to read the next book and omg this is like my 5th book of the month, I am on a roll.
I was listening to Castle by Halsey while writing this minuscule review
