I have to say one of my favorite parts about re-reading this masterpiece out loud to my younger sisters (who have never read this series) was all the dots that connected in their minds. They loved hearing about the founding of Narnia and all the pre-Lion, Witch, and Wardrobe details that make the next book even better. I do have to say that my love for Narnia has been rekindled too. It has been a little over five years since I have last read this book!
This book is definitely a timeless classic that is good for any age!! ...more
I was honestly worried when I first started re-reading this book that I would find it so boring that my love for LOTR would end up dying a little but I was honestly worried when I first started re-reading this book that I would find it so boring that my love for LOTR would end up dying a little but rather my love for this series has grown!! I think it’s helped that I have read this once before and that I have seen the movie 4 times (2 times in just the past year) so I knew what to expect.
All the characters are just as loveable as they are in the movies. Aragorn is still my favorite and there is nothing that can change that, lol. I honestly loved seeing the characters in their book form rather than their movie form. I do have to applaud Peter Jackson for sticking so close to the books.
I know there are some things that he added and left out but what he included it was almost exact to the book. Even some of the dialogue is the same!
I love LOTR so much and I cannot wait to start reading Two Towers!!! ...more
