The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster
4.0

More of a 4.5/5 star!

My boyfriend was the one who for the past almost 2.5 years (since we started dating) kept telling me to read this. It’s his favorite book, even though he’s not a big reader at all. But he said it summarizes so much about him with his humor and everything. Which I totally get!

I’m surprised it’s taken me this many years to get around to this. It’s such a popular children’s book and the fact that I haven’t read it is crazy! But when my boyfriend and I were at a used bookstore and I saw it I had to get it!

I was amazed by how much I really enjoyed this! I wasn’t expecting it at all! I loved the humor and I loved the story of it all. It had great morals and learning words and math! But with everything else in our lives!

It was such a fun read! If you haven’t read it yet I recommend it!
