I decided to pick up the Chronicles of Narnia in a beautiful illustrated edition, which inspired a re-read to complete the series. I'd definitely read a couple of the stories, but I'm not sure I ever finished it.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was a solid story, but while it's enjoyable I didn't find it to be particularly memorable. I think that's probably due to how familiar I find this story; it's so famous and I liked the adaptions so much that the book really couldn't have held up. I'm looking forward to seeing how the other books that I don't know much about stack up.
