Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carol-4 Stars.
I had wanted to read this for a very long time and finally decided to pick it up. I think the best word to describe it is weird. But certainly enjoyable. Although Through the Looking Glass was more weird and less enjoyable.
Agreed. I much preferred Alice in Wonderland. TTLG was a little lacking in direction and not at all cohesive.
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald-4 Stars
Very nice. Totally enjoyable. My mom hates this book however, thinks we are all brainwashed by the "Great" in the title. What do you guys think?
I reread this last year as I was tutoring a girl at high school. I love it. It's very well written (although not Fitzgerald's best) and very much a piece of its time. I think what's most outstanding, though is the psychology. If you enjoyed this you should read more Fitzgerald. Tender is the Night is lovely, as are most of his other books and stories.
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury- 4 stars
Pretty good. Although dull in some parts.
I liked it, but thought it was a little lacking in both style and substance. Doesn't quite live up to its reputation, in my opinion.
