After completing Alice in Wonderland, I have realized that I really don't enjoy all fantasy books as much as I thought. While the book was a nice break from reality, I found it quite difficult to follow because it skipped around so much and really had no major goal. I could not really connect to the story because everything was so far out of the realm of reality, and Carroll did not spend much time in long descriptions to allow me to travel their with Alice. However, I did very much enjoy the chapter discussing the education under the sea. The parallels with the traditional school subjects were extremely fun to find and the entire chapter was a wonderful satire on the education system of today. It was difficult to understand the satire in many of the poems and songs because I had not grown up hearing these verses.
