I can't believe it took me so long to read this one!! SO GOOD. also where is the movie
Probably the weakest so far, but scraped 4 stars and still fun More tomorrow :)Right I have been thinking about this review all day. It was the weakest of the books so far with what felt almost like a padded out story and I was thinking it would be a 3 star read. That said i didn't bank on Puddleglum, he was the real star of the book and added enough to make me give it 4 stars.The book features the Pevensie's cousin Eustace, now a Narnian regular and a "jolly good chap" with a schoolfriend of
C.S. Lewis and I are never going to see eye to eye. First, because I've yet to feel any desire to participate in a seance, and second, I prefer my manipulative (religious) propaganda to be much more subtle in nature. And yet, despite all the above, I can't help but keep coming back to these books. What can I say? The appeal of a magical world in a wardrobe is irresistible. Yes, I knooooow it's not actually inside the wardrobe, yadda yadda yadda...I loved reading about the latest developments in
The last two books are definitely not in line for my favourites. There are various factors -- one of which is simply that I don't like seeing Narnia come to an end! But the main one is that I don't find Jill, Eustace and Puddleglum that compelling as main characters. Or Rillian, for that matter, even though he's Caspian's son. They're quite realistic and human, and lack the nobility that Peter, Susan, Edmund and Lucy have, I think. Perhaps too realistic. I want to kick Jill a lot of the time for
Re-read time the umpteenth, removed by 8 months from Mrs. White's murderous composition classes: I LOVE THE WRITING STYLE. CANNOT BE IMPROVED.Old review:Loved it. As always. Wish I was small and simplistic again, though, so that I wouldn't constantly mentally add to Lewis' writing to make it more descriptive and/or profound.This is a children's book, Els. Relax. You got the point when you were younger. And sometimes, simplicity is best.
Ugh, Eustace. This book did nothing to change my perspective on him.I might actually dislike him more now since he ruined this book for me.Not even Puddleglum could save the book from Eustace for me.
