The Golden Compass

I really don't like fantasy novels like this one. I can't put my finger on why I didn't enjoy the book. It's odd because I really love the Chronicles of Narnia movies but I just think the fantasy genre of book doesn't work well for me. I like to read something that is a little more believable and less unicorns, dragons, and elves and that kind of stuff(or crap in my opinion)...it just wasn't my cup of tea I guess.
