DNF at 30% for a few reasons:

2. This book is VERY enemies to lovers. The MC and love interest were so ge

4.75 stars. I'll never rate a Narnia book 5 stars, just because of the nature of them being kids' books, and the general issues with writing style and pacing, but out of all of them, The Magician's Nephew is now my favorite. The allegory was beautifu ...more
