I think this one has a lot of interesting themes to offer but the MC wasn't really special, maybe that was intentional to make us understand him better but this way the MC and the plot felt a bit flat. The ending didn't go BAM either unfortunately, i mean it made sense in a way but nothing more.

I just can't do without some nice books about Chivalry, Knights and King Arthur, though he is one of the minor characters in the second story of the series!

This book doesnt even have a plot going on, everything weird and crazy just happens and thats it actually but it is darn hilarious and Alice is just too likable and funny, my favorite scene is the tea party by far!
