You can never go wrong with classics. This was another interesting read and I’m glad to have stumbled upon it.

When people start reminiscing about their childhood days my mind reverts back to good ol’ afternoons with Roald Dahl.
You know, the guy whose name I haven’t been able to pronounce right for a decade and still can’t.
I remember liking this book heavily because the style was rather different from the rest and it just stuck out because I couldn’t arrange it by the colours of the rainbow unlike the other books. Also it made me feel smart because I kept fantasising about me being able to see through objects and begin my life scamming casinos like the plot of every grand heist movie. The others were cool (although I didn’t really like the Turtle one) but Henry Sugar comes out on top
Automatic 5 stars
