About a month and a half ago, Chuck mentioned he had never read the Narnia books and wanted to do that, especially with Prince Caspian being released in theaters this month. So he suggested we read them outloud together, which we started doing. It has been SO relaxing and fun, I think we would both highly recommend it to any couple out there in need of something low key to do together. We take turns reading, doing several chapters a week, and have made our way through The Magician's Nephew and The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe, and will start The Horse & His Boy this next week. I am not sure we will manage to get through Prince Caspian before it leaves the theaters, so we might have to go see it before we finish the book (I've read them all already...) but we're going to try! I think after we finish Narnia, there has been some talk of tackling Harry Potter together...we'll see--stay tuned!Friday, May 23, 2008
Our new favorite past time

Even better is listening to Harry Potter on cd (or iPod) together because you can listen anywhere you want... while you're cooking, while you're in the car, sitting on the airport together (if you have a headphone splitter), or just laying around the apartment. Nathan and I would highly recommend it. :)
ReplyDeleteWe're reading Prince Caspian outloud now too! I agree--great fun. Although I think you are going through the books faster than us, even though we live in the same house!!
ReplyDeleteYou have to listen to the Harry Potter books... the narrator does an awesome job with voices for the various characters and all! Although, reading together sound like a lot of fun!
