A review by thebookberrie
Furthermore by Tahereh Mafi
This is going to be a very quick one because I'm boo boo the fool YET AGAIN reading a middle grade novel when I already knew I didn't vibe with them!
This book is an Alice in Wonderland retelling, with a young girl named Alice falling into the land Furthermore, in search of her father.
The writing was interesting, told in the style of the author personally telling the reader a story and it was fun enough. But it was (obviously) very young and bizarre and didn't work for me. This entire book is just endless nonsense after more nonsense all in the name of being quirky and wacky and I've never been a fan of actual nonsense. Meanwhile they kept saying how the MC and her friend were 12 years old and omg stop reminding me how much this book wasn't for me.
