I don't know what to say i know this world has inspired movies, theater, songs and much much more. I can also see as a young child i may have enjoyed it a lot more, and to have this kind of imagination when the book was published was incredible.

But....

The book felt like a trip, I felt i had fallen into someones head who had to many special cigarettes, or biscuits, i jumped from one place to another with flowers turning to women, Woggle bugs (im still not sure what this is) boys turning to girls......

I did love how characters had thoughts and came to conclusions... that makes the book unique... But the world a bit to dizzy for me.
