Narnia. It almost doesn’t seem possible that there are people who still haven’t read the books, but I know that good books get lost in the shuffle sometimes. If you’ve never read this seven book series, you’ve missed a real treat. The storylines are beautifully written, the characters fun, and some of the symbolism is really incredible.
If you’re interested in reading these amazing books (which are a nice, small, easily readable size), I’d recommend that you begin with either The Magician’s Nephew, or The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. Personally, I’d say start with The Magician’s Nephew. It comes first in chronological order, and is also my second favorite.
