2019 Book Reviews.

#1 Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis

Carroll.

I don't recall reading any children's books when I was young. I watched movies sure, but reading is an activity I picked up only in recent years. Because of this I had missed out on a lot of great stories including this one.

I really enjoyed this book. I found it was very entertaining and it's mostly nonsensical nature gives it a real lightness and makes it fun to read. I think one of Lewis Carroll's great talents was his intelligent and often playful use of language that I think both children and adults can appreciate. This would be a very fun book to read with a child and it's many interesting and quirky characters will stay with you long after you finish reading.

My rating: 7.9/10.

    Lewis Caroll was a mathematician and many times the sentences there are like riddles. You need to think in order to find out the hidden meaning.

    There are some quotes I really love in this novel. “ If it was so it might be, and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t. That’s logic” 😁

    @Luci Hahahaha. Yeah! I read about the mathematical interpretations of his language use on Wikipedia yesterday. So impressive! This is why kids and adults can both enjoy it. 😉

    But I think this story is very unreasonable. Each role's personality is bizarre.
