Alice in Wonderland

Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

★★★ (out of 5 stars)

I just recently figured out how to download FREE books onto my phone. FREE BOOKS!! So, in addition to my normal reading list, I added as few classics onto my phone to read whenever I have some down 
time, when it is just not convenient to bring a book (like to church, haha).
Having grown up watching different adaptations of this book, cartoon and otherwise, I was a bit disappointed by the book. I always thought the movies were a little weird, so I was hoping the book would explain more, and add more depth to the story and characters. Nope, nadda...still weird.  I am not even sure why this book is a classic.  I am sure there were some hidden layers and meanings in the story that I was just to dense to get, and sure it was interesting and very creative.  I just didn't get IT.  Glad I decided to read it, but it was just okay.
