Even after all these years, I will never stop loving Narnia and its world building. I love these characters so much and this book is such a nostalgic breath of fresh air for me. 

As an adult revisiting this story through novel and not motion picture, I realize some more meanings in the story as compared to when I was younger. I feel like Narnia was my first foray into fantasy and even after all the fantasy stories I have consumed, it still holds a high place in my heart. 

Such a good read especially considering how old this book is.

I remember it fondly from childhood, but the writing style is a little strange to read now. Good to do a watch-along with the movie.
