Becoming Mrs. Lewis

3.5 stars
It was interesting at first, but it really drug out and I struggled to stay interested.

Captivating. I laughed, I cried. I'd give this ten stars if I could.

Historical fiction is not usually my jam. But C. S. Lewis always is. So I was a little unsure about how I would feel about this book, which uses the facts that we know about Joy and C. S. Lewis to weave a fictional story about Joy's life before she encountered Lewis (Jack) in his writing, began corresponding with him, met him in Oxford, etc. But I absolutely loved it. I will definitely be reading it again. And reading it now also renews my desire to read Joy's own writings.
