The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis

3.0

---

Yes, I read them all at one go. And they had delightful colored illustrations. The ending was a little crazy… I get that there is a big Christian message interweaved throughout the books, but at the end, I felt like I was on some sort of acid trip. Also, as has been pointed out by others, I had a problem with the xenophobia and the treatment of females in general, but especially the treatment of Susan. I've been feminist pretty much from the time I started to think consciously, so maybe Lewis' sexism is the reason why these stories didn't stick when I was little.
