A review by holtfan
The Enchanted Castle by E. Nesbit

3.0

This book reminded me enough of C.S. Lewis to hold my interest. However, I can't say I overly enjoyed it. I think perhaps I would have enjoyed it more when I was younger. It did get better as is it went along but it lacked any sense of...urgency. Or point? Not that all plots need a point but the various adventures felt strung together without too much rhyme or reason until near the end (which probably was the point since Childhood and Imagination and stuff but...it felt lacking.)
I'd read it to a child but probably wouldn't pick it up for personal enjoyment.
