I dont consider a lot of the books "for kids", I consider them "clean enough to not be embarrassed to show a mom, but still worth reading".
I would love Alexander if not for the fact that my *very creepy* 6th grade teacher was the one who introduced him to us!
Narnia is, to me, the perfect book set. I loved them, I still love them, I cant not love them. Hope the movie doesnt suck, but with Tilda Swinton, I cant imagine it will be totally screwed up. Inspired casting, from what I see so far.
I havent been reading as much as I would like to, because I am afraid to run out of good books.
I've never actually read the Narnia books - I don't even own a copy (I've got some other C.S. Lewis stuff, but I've not read that either).
Even if I were to more then double my rate of reading, it would be ten years before I run out of good books in the house. And that's not even counting the good books I'd pick up during the ten years.
