My Review
This is my first time reading these books! Can you believe it?! I absolutely loved the recent movies with
William Moseley and Anna Popplewell. And
knew that it was time. It’s past time,
really.
So I went into The Magician’s Nephew not knowing too much
about this specific book but knowing enough about the future ones to get the
gist of everything. And it was just so
great to read. A bit nostalgic in a way
because of the movies.
It was very interesting to find out how everything
happened. We see how Narnia is made and
we meet the Witch and I practically squealed when Aslan came into the
picture. I freaking love Aslan.
I did find that the writing was a bit iffy, though. Mostly the dialogue and that’s just because
of how dated it is. Obviously.
There’s not much to say because I feel like everyone and
their mother has read this series or at least watched the movies and know
enough of what the stories are about.
But I do know that I can’t wait to read the rest of the series!
