Helpful Score: 4
This is probably one of my favorite books. Definitely my favorite C.S. Lewis book! There are so many layers to this story, so many things to take away from it. For example, how many times in the name of love have you tried to control or manipulate others? Just how unconditional or conditional is your love for others? And then on the spiritual end, if one has ever had a profound spiritual experience they will know how hard it is to have others understand or worse, they try to drag you back down to their ignorance.
If I don't make much sense then let me off you this: this book will make you reflect and think about your own motivations in relating to people and personal evolution. I found this book to be especially good for mother/daughter relationships at a base level. If one is on a spiritual path, then they will recognize the messages available to them. I found it applicable even if the reader isn't into Christianity.
A final word, the story begins a bit slow, starts to move along but by the end really gets going. So if you come to a point where you think you might put it down, please do yourself the favor to continue on.
