The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster
2.0

I'd heard this book was a classic, so I've been meaning to read it for a while now. And you know, it was alright. Parts of it were amusing, but I also felt as if the book as a whole was like a joke that went on too long. Perhaps if I'd read it as a kid I'd feel more love and nostalgia for it, but though I'm glad I've finally read Tollbooth, I can't see myself ever going back to it in the future. Once was enough.
