Let's start with my short review of "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll.
Going into this book I was a bit iffy. I wasn't sure I was going to like it. After finishing it I can't say that my opinion was changed any. Maybe there was a deeper meaning to this book that I just didn't understand, but it just seemed like a nonsense book written by a fifth grader. Unless one really likes nonsensical stories I wouldn't recommend it. If you really want it Amazon has it for free in the Kindle store.

Next up is "Soul Identity" by Dennis Batchelder.
I greatly enjoyed this book. The characters a bit two dimensional and the plot a bit out there, but Mr. Batchelder makes it all work. The characters are taken across the world and back, they interact very well, and are mostly believable. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a quick easy read. I give it 4 stars out of 5. I look forward to buying the second book of the series next week. Amazon also has this one for free on the Kindle. Check it out.

I like to think I have a pretty good imagination and a decent sense of wonder.
