Review: Complete Alice in Wonderland

Complete Alice in Wonderland Complete Alice in Wonderland by Leah Moore
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

There's not much I can say about Alice in Wonderland that hasn't been said before, so I'll just focus on this beautiful graphic novel.

First of all, the authors made an amazing job of translating the book into a graphic novel. I had the "written" edition with me and I checked each and every page of it against this book and you don't lose anything. What I mean is that some adaptations lose half the original text, and this was not the case. The title states it's the complete Alice and is certainly is.

As for the illustrations, they are amazing, full of detail! The colors come out as matte and subdued (I read the book on my computer), but it only makes them more beautiful and accord to the book.
But I have to say my least favorite character was Alice, as she is depicted in a very "anime" form: big eyes, turned up nose, little mouth and it seems like a completely different style from other characters, like the Queen of Hearts

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review
