Typically I struggle with accents but this one was just right to keep it engaging and keep my attention. I enjoyed the voices, especially the sweet little voice given to Alice's sister.In case you were wondering about the steampunk elements in this book... they are minimal like I said. Our characters travel in airships and there are some automatons at the end. There is also this stupid mechanical cat that doesn't add to the plot or anything. It is only there so that they could name it Cheshire and call it "steampunk". Ugh. So basically, this book has a steampunk skin (meaning that the steampunk elements are only skin deep). I'm tired of books like this that call themselves "steampunk", but really only have the most stereotypical steampunk aesthetics like corsets, automatons, goggles, parasols, etc. Alice in Wonderland Collection – All Four Books: Alice in Wonderland, Alice Through the Looking Glass, Hunting of the Snark and Alice Underground (Illustrated) Alice in Wonderland (Third Edition) (Norton Critical Editions) Alice in Wonderland Quote Wall Decal March Hare Costume March Hare Easter Bunny Rabbit Nose Bunny Ears Costume Hat March Hare Hat March Hare Women’s Costume Plush Fun Bunny Ears Hood Bunny Ear Headband Rabbit Ears Men’s March Hare Costume Kid’s Lovely Rabbit Ears Headband White Rabbit Costumes Setting (4/5): This whole world is well done, it’s a steampunk London and the story stays in the city. The particulars about how this steampunk London is run with the airships and layout are very well done. This was a creative and fun setting that was easy to picture. I can't recommend this book enough, I am looking forward to reading more in Melanie Karsak's fairytale Steampunk books. I HIGHLY recommend! A must read for Alice Fans! Even if you aren't a fan of Alice you will be a fan of this book for sure. SOOOOOO GOOD!!!

Instead of "STEAMPUNK ALICE IN WONDERLAND", the tag-line for this book should be "AN ALICE IN WONDERLAND/STEAMPUNK THEMED ROMANCE". Instead of the madness of engineering and pistons, Carroll's novel explored the glorious madness of human psychology. As his protagonist Alice moves from dreamy encounter to dreamy encounter, watching nursery rhymes coming to life and fighting bloodthirsty monarchs made of cards, we witness something that for the Victorians was just as stunning as a giant dynamo. Psychiatry was in its infancy in the 19th century, and this brave new science suggested there was a method in madness. The muddle of our dreams might illuminate the truth about human consciousness; the murmurings of madwomen could shed light on how so-called sane people think. I'm left wondering if the sentence "but the transition had been smooth" is meant to read "but the transition hadn't been smooth". Either way, it does't really make sense to me. Also, they live together. How they hell have they not found the "timing" to get it on? And why not? How does that serve the story? It is only a detriment to the believe-ability of their relationship. So why? I don't even like romance. Why am I advocating for it? Because it would have made their relationship better, that's why. Just a little bit of sexual tension would have added another level to their dynamic. Instead, their interactions are cheesy and boring and predictable.A boy with a mop of striking white hair, wearing an expensive but oversized waistcoat, slipped between us and was gone again in a flash.

This story is filled with well-developed characters full of life and complex emotions. All of the characters you know from the original Alice in Wonderland are here but in completely new incarnations. Each is recognizable as their original counterpart but reworked into new and interesting characters all their own. Alice, who is exactly the kind of heroine I want to read about, is smart, strong-willed, and full of heart. I really liked this book. Maybe not a work of genius, but highly entertaining. I might reread this, and I will finish the series. (If part of one) I would recommend to those I know hold interest in this book's content.Curious indeed, and a fantastic read. Imagine a fusion between Alice in Wonderland and Oliver Twist. It's that compelling. And witty, adventurous and clever. HPL Alice in Wonderland Fantasy Chess Set with 17 1/2″ Castle / Fortress Board Silver-Plated Alice in Wonderland Charm Bracelet With a gripping plot and a clear, witty writing style, the author has given new, sparkling life to much-beloved characters such as a totally reimagined Caterpillar, the colourful Mad Hatter, the chaming Knave, a surprising Cheshire cat, and Alice herself, a woman of brain and bravery.
