The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis

3.0

I don't believe I'd ever actually read this before, and though I've seen the movie and understood the basic parts of the plot, it has been a very long time. That said, I was pretty surprised at how fast paced the plot went, there wasn't very much actual character development or world building. It's very much a children's book, and by those standards it's a fantastic one. The symbology is pretty clear cut, and pretty entertaining.

That said, I'm not a child, so I didn't particularly love reading it. But I look forward to reading it to my kids someday.
