Alice by Christina Henry

All that dialogue about how the Jabberwocky was this powerful Magician only for him to be defeated by A WISH????!!! You cannot be serious. I just know Lewis Carroll is tossing in his grave. Also, the entire book revolved around hunting for the Vorpal Blade, but guess we didn’t need that either. A wish was the only weapon needed. How do you build up to a final showdown of magical beings only for it to be less than 5 pages? Did I mention that Alice’s magic was based on wishing? At this point, call me up on my birthday, and I could defeat the Jabberwocky too
