Welcome to Litsy!

This is my non-mystery #serieslove2024 list. There‘s no way I‘ll read all of these along with the rest of my planned reading for the year, but I definitely want to pick off a few of them. The tagged book might (or might not) be one of them. #shipsorsailing #newyearnewbooks

“And whatever strange things may happen to you, let nothing turn your mind from following the signs.” In my most humble opinion, this thrilling story is the best book in the entire Narnia series. This adventure teaches not only the heroes but also the reader that all journeys require a map of wisdom that if neglected will almost indefinitely result in greater trials and heartache. #narnia #52challenge

“Courage, dear heart.” In a book where everything that could go wrong does go wrong, this encouraging whisper in a moment of bleak darkness is the glimpse of light we as the reader and our hero need to hear. Written more as a collection of short adventures than a single arc, this story takes the reader on a wild ride of high and low waves. #narnia #52challenge

No one is told any story but their own.

“No one is told any story but their own.” This book is magically unique in a book series that is already magically unique in itself. From the viewpoint of the most unlikely of adventurers we learn that everyone‘s story is far more significant than they themselves can see. Whether horse or boy everyone has a part to play if only they are willing. #narnia #52challenge

When things once start going right they often go on getting better and better.

“When things once start going right they often go on getting better and better.” What a perfect quote from the first book of a truly amazing series. This is a book for all ages as long as their imagination is vast and they long for wonderful adventures. Digory‘s story shows that who one puts their trust in and who they choose to respect or fear will determine which path in life they will take. #narnia #52challenge

Kaysen Emory is 8 as Lucy Pevensie in the Chronicles Of Narnia ❤️ #ChroniclesOfNarnia #LucyPevensie

I enjoyed this book as much as the first I read in the series (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe). I enjoyed the characters a bit more in this book but am still bothered by the blatant sexism. Favourite thing by far was the trees! Excited to read the third - I believe it is The Voyage of the Dawn Trader if I'm reading in publication order.
