Reviews

I had a leatherbound copy of the handed down to me from my mother.

I enjoyed Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, so it was only natural for me to want to read the sequel “Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There”. I have to say, comparing the two that I’m disappointed in ‘Through the Looking-Glass’. All the wit and enjoyment I received from ‘Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland’ seemed to be missing from “Through the Looking-Glass”. Lewis Carroll did employ some interesting writing techniques into the book including frequent changes in time and spatial directions as a plot device but I didn’t enjoy this book as much as I was hoping. It could have been my high expectations but I think this book was more focused on being a children’s story more than its predecessor. There is still an element of that magic to still make this a good book to read and I would recommend reading it; I wanted more from it.
