I read Charlotte’s Web by E. B. White and felt slightly disappointed. I’m not sure why I expected something bigger from a children’s book. Many moments felt random, and the main plot didn’t fully make sense to me. Still, I appreciated how the story handles themes like life and death, friendship, and the passage of time.

I am 24 years old and have never read this book nor watched the movie. I'm not gonna lie I was definitely missing something cause this was low-key a fun read.
