Chronicles of Narnia
So for the first time ever I read all of the books in the Chronicles of Narnia, they were fantastic. I would recommend them to everyone. It is so weird how in tune to the spirit that C.S. Lewis must have been, I can see all the symbolism of the gospel in these books, and it makes me wish I could be as in tune as he was even though he wasn't even a member of the church. I have been thinking lately how lame I am and really hope that I can be an example to people around me and show through my actions my testimony of the gospel, these books just reminded me of everything I believe in and everything that I want to be. The last book is especially moving and has some things that make me sad that would make me sad in real life too. I don't want to say too much incase someone hasn't read the books so that I don't spoil the endings for you. I just hope that I can be a better example and a good person. And seriously read the books, they are so much fun and really easy to read.
