2.0
The Chronicles of Narnia series was another one of my likable books reading growing up. I read through this entire series in one month and definitely liked it. There were many things that definitely dragged on about these but overall I liked it but wouldn't say I'm a die hard fan.

Favorite Quotes:
- It is, then, my good fortune not to be a man." - 198
- "But I hope it will never be told in Narnia that a company of noble and royal persons in the flower of their age turned tail because they were scared of the dark." - 192
- "that's the worst of doing anything with boys. You're all such swaggering, bullying idiots" - 136
Review/Highlights:
This one is definitely not my favorite of the series. It feels really slow with no action, like the others have, and it feels as though it is setting up for the next one only. I did enjoy the parallels to King Arthur and stories such as those, though. Overall, it was too long and full of extraneous detail, where we should have seen a separate plot instead.
