5.0

Such a classic. CS Lewis’ sense of humor is so loveable and fun, infusing the story with elements of dry British sarcasm that I love. As an adult, Narnia has only gotten more rich and more palpable; the allegory comes into focus more than it did when I read the books as a kid, and all of the subtleties are no longer lost on me. Truly a timeless book.
