[Maddie]

What book is this starting from?

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I think CP and Erin are reading prince caspian next? not 100% sure though.

[C.P.]

Yeah, I think we are doing them in an odd order
:D

[Maddie]

Ah alright thanks XD

[C.P.]

I was able to get The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe so we can start with that one. Feel free to join us Maddison. I believe we are going to read them all. Hopefully in chronological order.

[Maddie]

I think Erin and I are planning them for a bit later, but in numerical order. Hopefully both ways make sense.

[Ashley W]

Which order is the chronological one? I know there are two but I don't know which is which

[Sarah Elizabeth]

This is the chronological order - https://www.goodreads.com/series/4381...

[Ashley W]

Thank you, Sarah!

[Ashley W]

Magician's Nephew
Chapter 1 (view spoiler)[ Uncle Andrew sounds super creepy. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 4
(view spoiler)[ I am much more like Polly. I would want to go home, and definitely just leave things alone. No sense of adventure. lol (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 7
(view spoiler)[ Well, that sounded chaotic. It probably was funny to watch though. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 8
(view spoiler)[ Poor cabbie! (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 11
(view spoiler)[ I can see how this would be like the Garden of Eden. (hide spoiler)]

[spoilers removed]"

There were a lot of parts in this one where I was like "yesss. I see the biblical references."

[C.P.]

I think I am in chapter 4 of LWW. (view spoiler)[I'm glad that I read Magician's Nephew first. The world makes more sense with that background. I like the siblings so far. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

I'm starting LLW tonight. I read it last year some time but I think I will follow it differently since I have read Magician's Nephew.

[C.P.]

I read it a few years ago and I can already tell a difference in how I'm reading and understanding the story.

[Lee]

C.P. wrote: "I think I am in chapter 4 of LWW. [spoilers removed]"

I do think that it makes more sense after reading Magician's Nephew. And I think so far my favorite is Lucy. She seems like such a cutie pie.

[C.P.]

In chapter 7. (view spoiler)[Edmond can be so terrible. How old are they supposed to be? I don't think it has said. (hide spoiler)]

[C.P.]

In chapter 9 LWW. (view spoiler)[It's interesting to see how Edmond has been corrupted. He was afraid at first and then, when given something to put him at ease, he turned to her side. Obviously there is magic in this case, but it's still interesting. And I like the beavers. (hide spoiler)]

[C.P.]

Finished chapter 10 of LWW. (view spoiler)[How big are the beavers? And what is St Nicolas if not a man? (hide spoiler)]

[Lee]

C.P. wrote: "In chapter 7. [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Edmund really can be awful. I'm not sure it's said their ages either, but I feel like Lucy is supposed to be around 8? So I don't know if that was in the book or just what I'm imagining. (hide spoiler)]

[C.P.]

Through chapter 12 of LWW. (view spoiler)[The killing of the wolf was kind of abrupt. And why are there four thrones? I don't think there has been an explanation. (hide spoiler)]

I will look at your comment when I'm on my computer and can open spoilers. :)

(view spoiler)[I picture the kids from the movies a lot, so 8 probably makes sense in that regard. I just wonder how much age difference is supposed to be between Edmund and the older two...there's only a year between him and Lucy it said. (hide spoiler)]

[spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Via Google it said that Peter is 13, so that would leave 4 years between him and Edmund. (hide spoiler)]

[C.P.]

Finished LWW last night. Overall I really enjoyed it. I do think that Magician's Nephew is overall better written and constructed. But that makes sense, since he wrote it later.

Will be starting The Horse and His Boy in the next day or so.

[C.P.]

I started The Horse and His Boy (HHB is what I will call it). Not sure where I am, but I am enjoying Shasta and his story.

[C.P.]

Thanks! I guess that could make sense.

[C.P.]

HHB doesn't tell me what chapter I'm on...I think I'm somewhere around halfway through. (view spoiler)[They just left the city and are sharing details with each other. Is Shasta the twin of Corrin (or whatever his name is) or something? (hide spoiler)]

[C.P.]

Nearly finished with HHB. On the Pevensie kids: (view spoiler)[I didn't know they would show up here. It must have been interesting to be sent back to our world after the've grown into these roles. And to become young again. They grew up and could have married. That would be strange. (hide spoiler)]

[C.P.]

Some final thoughts on HHB. (view spoiler)[It was a little rushed on the explanation of Corr and Corrin being twins, but I expected that to happen so it was ok. I thought it was funny that their fights always ended with Corrin knocking him down.

I did really enjoy this, but not sure that I liked it quite as much as the previous two. (hide spoiler)]

[C.P.]

I will be starting Prince Caspian tomorrow.

[C.P.]

Three chapters into PC. (view spoiler)[I like how they are just dragged back into Narnia. It would be sad though to find your castle in ruins and not know what has happened to your people. (hide spoiler)]

[Lee]

I'm really going to try and get semi-caught up with you today.
