Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly Alice in Wonderland) is an 1865 English children's novel by Lewis Carroll. A young girl named Alice falls through a rabbit hole into a fantasy world of anthropomorphic creatures. It is seen as an example of the literary nonsense genre.

One of the best-known works of Victorian literature, its narrative, structure, characters and imagery have had huge influence on popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre.

Review of 'Alice in Wonderland' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

2½ stars, rounding up for story length (and even then, I’m generous)

At times hard to follow. Way too much romance. Tons of OCs, and a rather OOC Harry. Family Magic as a panacea, inconsistent enemies and inconsequent dealing with traitors in various kinds. I never understood where Bill stands in all this, till the ending (which wasn’t all that satisfying either), and other loose threads exist.
