My rating: 2 of 5 stars
I never read this book as a kid. My familiarity with the story stems mainly from the Disney adaptation and general knowledge. The Kindle version of the book was free, it was pretty short, and I decided I'd give it a shot.
I'm sorry I bothered.
This book is definitely *not* my cup of tea. I enjoyed the wikipedia entry about the book more than the book itself. It noted that the book is classified as "nonsense literature," and I cannot agree more. The book is utter nonsense. I just could not get into the spirit of the writing at all.
If you love this book, more power to you. I'll stick with the film adaptations. And I won't be reading "Through The Looking Glass."

Then you might understand the sense behind the nonsense.
Too many books in the world, and too little time.
Read on, young man.
More than anything, I'm just glad to be reading again.
