Hi Christy..I would love to see a reading vlog of "Little women" from you..😊

@RobertDPore 3 месяца назад

Even though The Magician's Nephew is my absolute favorite Narnia book, I'm really not sure you should read it before Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe, because as a prequel, MN is very much meant to explain certain details you should already know from LWW. However, the Narnia series is fun and you can feel free to read it in whatever order you feel like. MN in particular is interesting right now because I feel like "The Boy and the Heron" partially feels like an adaptation of it.

@christy-anne-jones 3 месяца назад

Thank you for letting me know! Might start with the actual first book then 😊💛

@RobertDPore 3 месяца назад

@@christy-anne-jones You're welcome! You can depart from the publication order a little if you want - Magician's Nephew and The Horse and His Boy are both a little outside the main chronology and you can just as easily read them right after LWW - I remember liking both of them a lot more than Prince Caspian. Good luck with your reading and your health!

@kimdaltrey2315 3 месяца назад

I definitely agree with this - and I would also actually recommend reading in published order. Certainly how I read it as a child. One of my children was put off the series because the school got them to read MN first - while I enjoyed the book, I feel it is drier and less immediate than the rest. Kim

@elizabethwarner9949 3 месяца назад

I highly recommend reading in publication order as well!

@MatildaTheBookDragon 3 месяца назад

I disagree, I would read The Magicians Nephew first as it's explains the world to be. Read it in the order you want to!

@likak7000 3 месяца назад

I'd definitely start the Narnia series from Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe. It's crucial for the understanding of the whole concept of the series. And also, that was the order that Lewis prefered.

The Gracekeepers has been on my TBR for awhile now, so I can't wait to hear what you think of it :) Wide Sargasso Sea is a weird one. I read it a number of years ago and I'm still not sure I actually liked it? But it was certainly an interesting exploration of why Mrs. Rochester was the way she was in Jane Eyre.

@StephMorgan_ 3 месяца назад

omg! I adore the magician's nephew! you should also check out the 1988 BBC TV series for Narnia if you can get your hands on it! They're like extended movies and did a number of different books that the more recent ones didn't cover. Even if you don't want to read the entire series, I'd highly recommend the radio adaptions as well lol The gracekeepers sound so interesting as well. Thanks for putting it on my radar ☺

@ThatSoundsBoring 3 месяца назад

I was that weird kid who read Victorian novels for fun in elementary school. Then I took a class in Caribbean lit in college and Wide Sargasso Sea was one of the books and I was obsessed with it for the longest time. It felt like those moments when you suddenly realize as an adult that something about your childhood was completely different than what you always thought it was. I still randomly think about that book even though it’s been years since I last read it. If anyone has recs for similar novels, please share!

@wendyfletcher6132 3 месяца назад

I teach 5th grade and I have read The Bad Beginning as a read aloud to my classes for more than 10 years. The kids get totally sucked in, and the series stays checked out from the library. I will admit that I seem to notice something new that I’ve not before each time I read it. We also read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe as a novel study. I agree with others that The Magician’s Nephew might be a little confusing if read first. Great choices on your TBR list.

@mariaromanova4547 3 месяца назад

Sounds amazing! Now I also want to read these books. Do you make a reading plan for the whole year at once? How do you manage to limit this list? What do you do when sudden impulses arise to read something else, and more, and more?

@christy-anne-jones 3 месяца назад

I read what I feel like, when I feel like it :) these are just the books I'm most excited for right now. In my experience, I tend to read 70% of the books from my TBR at the start of each year (and then I read the rest in following years) 💛

@isabellarose2463 2 месяца назад

I need to know your thoughts on Magician's Nephew once you finish it, because that book has stuck with me since childhood and I think you will really enjoy certain things about it.

@zorini.lungtau 3 месяца назад

Strange Beasts of China sounds interesting to me. I should check that up. You may have already known it, there's a sequel to Days at the Morisaki Bookshop that's coming out in July titled More Days at the Morisaki Bookshop. I think you'll love it. Also, have you heard of Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan? It's a retelling inspired by the Mid-Autumn Legend (Chinese) and I've just finished it. I have a feeling it could be something right up your alley.

@katievr9249 3 месяца назад

@emilycowdrey99 3 месяца назад

The Magician's Nephew is good, but even if you don't love it you should give the rest of Narnia a try because the prequel feels different and parts of it don't make sense until you've read the rest of the books.

The Ice Palace it's just beautiful, I wanted to make a little comic about it, because the imaginary it's marvelous, one of my favorite books. The Morisaki Bookshop it's told in a wonderful prose, the only thing that I didn't like was how the author portrayed the character of Momoko, because it has a lot of gender bias. Hope you like both books!
