The Magician's Nephew / The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe / The Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis

2.0

I don't know what it is about me, but I'm just not a fan of this book. I read it as a kid and had a hard time slogging through to the end. On second reading, the book is quick and spare, but the Christian allegory was so over-the-top that I don't know how anyone could miss it. I like my morals to be much less heavy-handed. All the characters are like cardboard cutouts waiting for something to happen, and even Aslan didn't feel like a real hero.
