Status Updates From Alice in Wonderland, and, T...

I have read the first chapter once before, that was a very long time ago. I am not a great reader in fact, up till now I cannot get through a book at all. I always stope maybe 4 chapters in. This year I want to read as part of rehabilitation from being very unwell in hospital. My aim is to finish two books by new years. If I finish one that’d be a miracle to be fair. So, two books will be a total challenge.

I adored the first story! Growing up, Alice in Wonderland was one of those films I watched over and over again, so reading the original tale felt like a trip down memory lane. Rediscovering Wonderland through Lewis Carrol's words brought back the same sense of wonder I remembered from childhood.

I’ve noticed that Alice often uses the phrase “it’s so queer.” Back then, I think it was commonly used to describe something strange or unusual? Nowadays, however, its more often associated with gender identity. Speaking of that, I might as well take this opportunity to say happy pride! 💜
