I'm not sure why I didn't review this the first time I read it. I'm not going to do a proper review since I haven't with the rest of the series, but I'll at least put a note or two.

This is definitely my least favorite book from the Narnia series. I don't dislike it, but it is quite slow and often boring. There are parts I love, which is why I'm going with four stars (though initially I had rated it five stars... I'm not sure why). I do adore this universe and it's the first fantasy series that I've wanted to get lost in, this one just drags so much.
