Characterisation: bad
Story: non-existent
Alice: the most irritating little shit ever written into a book, if I lived in wonderland I'd execute her personally.

Positives: great in its historical context in contributing towards how children are written about in Victorian literature

Was looking forward to this but it's really not been worth the hype. Probably not going to read the sequel. Would be putting this down if it wasn't so short. Only thing interesting me is the stuff that they didn't put in the film adaptation but it really doesn't add anything. Soz.


Also little edit: as much as I didn't like this i did really love the edition - it has a really lovely publishers note which adds great concise contextual information before reading. It's also nicely illustrated and the full verses Of rhymes that were later added on to are included. This edition is complete and unabridged to the original version, so if you are an Alice fan this is definitely a nice one to get.
