I have re-read this absolute treasure of a story just about every summer for the last ten-ish years. It is hands-down my favorite fanfiction of all time, and is for sure one of my favorite pieces of writing ever. I don't even care that it remains unfinished; it's beautiful and I love it and it gives me a deep world to escape to whenever I like. THIS is my Wonderland of choice, full of nuance and lush details and nonsense that makes perfect sense. I'm so glad I tumbled down this particular rabbit hole following the WCMI community way back when! The imagery/atmosphere and world building in this piece is outstanding and has influenced me, among other things, to go to a few operas, try a 500 piece puzzle, attempt a few months of Duolingo Italian, and finally tackle Anna Karenina. The night of the ball in this fic remains burned into my mind as the epitome of a grand evening gone sour. Hatter's house aesthetic influenced how I showcase my own souvenirs and knickknacks. The sound of Alice's stringed parcels gently shuffs in my mind when the air gets warm and the sun glows a golden afternoon, and I can dream and pretend there's a madman ready to balance a teacup on toes just beyond my sight. Thank you a thousand times for this wonderful work. It's about time for my next re-read.

It's nearing the nine year mark of the first time I read this story, and I just wanted to drop by and say I still think about it all the time. I hope you are well and I hope someday you might get a chance to revisit this gorgeous fic. I'll be here, no matter how much time passes!

Thanks again for crafting something so gloriously beautiful, and for leaving it online for so many years. 3

I keep rereading this entire thing, and I adore it so much. of course, I hate how it just ends without an actual ending, but still I'm grateful that these thirty chapters even exist and I feel lucky to have found them 3 Thanks a lot!

Please please finish this! It's so amazing! I have loved every single second so far...

Yooo. I remember this! I started singing sunny disposish out of no where the other day and decided to give this a reread. Still love it! Maybe someday we'll be blessed with a new chapter. (:

:-)

Rereading this, because I love it so much and I miss it. I just wanted you to know.

I was just watching Jeeves and Wooster, and Wooster was singing "47 Ginger headed sailors" and it reminded me of this fanfic, so I decided to reread. Excellent as always. I hope to someday see what shall happen next.

Just reread. Still fantastic! Really hoping you'll be inspired to update. Either way, very much enjoyed reading the story and the reading guides. Thank you for sharing it with the world via internet! :-)

Almost five years ago, I discovered this story. I followed it for a time, added it to my list of all time favorite works of fanfiction, and somehow (to my dismay) fell out of reading it. With the most recent update, I resolved that I would start again from the beginning and catch up with the narrative. It has truly been a delight, getting to read 16 new chapters of a fic I have and will always count amongst my favorites. I have to apologize for taking such an extended break from reading - I honestly can't say what compelled me to stop, only that I am infinitely gladder for being back. Thank you again for writing such an amazing story, for though I left I never truly left in earnest. This story will always draw me back and I cannot wait to see where the threads lead us all!

This is the closest fan fict to the original writing style of Lewis Carroll that I've encountered yet. The story has been a wild ride from the start. I knew that I was going to like it from the moment that Alice woke up in the hammock with the Mad Hatter and the way that he was carrying-on. You've taken the clever references and character personalities to a whole new level. The scenes and dialogue are well drawn-out and easy to get pulled into. I have to confess that there are times when I honestly have no idea what is really going on (the no-face baby in the muslin cloth and the brain trust at the champagne ball) although that's part of the mystery of Wonderland and it really gets the reader into Alice's sensical point of view in a world that seems anything other that sensible at (most) times. There are a few loose ends that leaves the reader to wonder, like will Alice solve what is making things disappear in the woods? I do miss the White Rabbit and the March Hare, those funny bunnies always add so much to Alice's story. I'm looking forward to the next chapter.

Synethesia. Beautiful.
Shame on me for never commenting before. I've loved every little bit of this work from the beginning. I always smile when I see a new chapter waiting for me to enjoy. The way you describe things is wonderful. The scenes you set, enchanting.
Please know that you've taken this story to such a wonderous place for me.
Lots of love,
