Through the Looking Glass, with eBook Audiobook

" Isn't "Through A Looking Glass" supposed to be about popes and prelates during medieval times? "

" I just can't get into these books! I read the words, and re-read them and nothing makes sense. Perhaps I'll try again sometime, but not any time soon "

" Liked it better than Wonderland though. "

" It it strange but a really good book to read "

" Actually preferred this to "Alice in Wonderland", but maybe I'd just acclimatised by this point ! "

" This book isn't very descriptive and the words not amazing but the ideas and plot in this book is revolutionary. I really enjoyed it though it is clear it is a child's book. "

" Not my type of book. "

" I much preferred Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland' to this story. This seemed to be trying too hard to be funny. I did like the word play, but it was similar in style to 'Alice in Wonderland' and just seemed like a younger sibling that was trying too hard. "

" So spun it made my head. "

" A wonderfully bizarre continuation of Alice's adventures (although it is not a follow up and no mention is given of her Wonderland journey throughout the book). Reminds us of what it is to imagine the world through childs eyes once more. "

" I really enjoyed all of the poems that were offered here. It is definitely a great work on the play of words. "

" I had never read this book. High time I did. I laughed out loud at times. Lewis Carrol would have been fun to know. "

" An excellent, surreal children's story with memorable characters. Favorite line: "Nurse! Do let's pretend that I'm a hungry hyaena and you're a bone." "

" This was okay. I think his books are more enjoyable with the visuals you get in movie format. "

" "The question," said Humpty Dumpty, "Is who is to be master, and that is all." "

" The first book I read on my kindle! "

" One of the best books ever. "

" As good as a childhood story can get, it is simple and confusing at the same time, loved it, highly recommend it to those who want to reminiscence on old tales. "

" I don't know if it's just because I'm more familiar with Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, but this seemed much more dream-like...in the way that kids want to tell you every detail of their dreams in the morning...a boring way. "

" Superior to the first book. "

" Noted as early inspiration for Kasparov. "

" Even zanier than Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Honestly, a little disturbing. That trial just goes on and on and on.... "

" Not as good as Wonderland. So whose dream was it? "

" A bit boring, but I liked it! "

" I love this book! Even more so than Alice in Wonderland, the characters just jump from the prose in such a way that I'm hard pressed to put it down every time I read it; be it the 1st or 5th time! (And I'm sure many more to come) "

" I love this book, but then I have a strange addiction to nonsense, rhyming and repetition. I don't understand enough of chess to comprehend the moves worked out through the book, but I do enjoy the strange adventures Alice partakes in. "

" I like farytales but for some reason I found this book to tidius. I couldn't finish it "

" This story has no plot, and no structure. It seems almost like random thoughts going through the author's head in no organized manner. The only reason I kept reading was because it was crazy to watch Carrol's ideas unfold. "

" Not as good as Alice in Wonderland, but still delightful. The poetry in "Looking Glass" is better though. "

" This book wasn't as strange as the first, but it also felt slower, to me. Not that this book was awful. I loved the poetry in it, and it seems that there is more direction in this story. Probably not a book I'll ever read again, but one worth reading at least once. "

" Much better than Alice in Wonderland, which I liked, too. I had forgotten that I read large portions of this in my Logic class in college. Very fun. "

" This book is just marginally better than Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. I'm just not taken with Carroll's style. He had a good imagination too bad he was such a bad writer. "

" Wonderfully illustrated and full of awesome colour! I loved th old style even though at times I didn't understand the book at all. I sure that the written version would add to my interest. "

" Hated it. Got about a third of the way through it and bailed. "

" We read this book on the class. "
