Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly shortened to Alice in Wonderland) is an 1865 novel by English author Lewis Carroll (the pseudonym of Charles Dodgson). It tells of a young girl named Alice, who falls through a rabbit hole into a subterranean fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures.

What a difference there is between reading paper copies of books over their digital counterparts!  I first read Alice in Wonderland on a kindle many years ago, whilst I didn't enjoy it much I could see it was a clever book,  I felt that Alice was a bit of an obnoxious brat who had no respect for anybody else.  Reading this beautiful Penguin clothbound version was a very different experience.  It was a joy to read, very clever usage of words and riddles and this time Alice came across as a girl with a smart imagination, somebody who finds joy in everything but who gets easily annoyed by the bizarre characters she finds herself hanging out with.  I especially enjoyed the Queen of Hearts this time, demanding everybody gets executed and then conveniently forgetting that fact when she needs some friends...I can see who President Trump has modelled himself on. …

Review of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass" on 'Storygraph'

4 stars

I think I'd likely give it 3.5 stars if it hadn't been for the narrator. She did a wonderful job of bringing the story to life.

I was engaged throughout most of the book but there were some scenes that seemed to be a bit heavy on details that did nothing to enhance the story or move it forward. There were also plenty of parts where I had wished more time had been spent giving us some of the feelings of the characters - some very important things that were just glossed over and not really brought up again.

But I still enjoyed the overall package a lot so that's why I went with four stars instead of three and a half.
