I rate short stories somewhat differently than longer works. I expect longer works to have depth, and etc. etc. I read shorter works for a quick fun read, and actually can penalize if I get too bogged down. bah, confused why I mention all that.
Ok, then. As you would expect from an Alice in Wonderland tale, this Alice was wacky strange ball of weird. Nice elements of BDSM. Kinda expected some play on "bigger" "smaller" to occur from eating/drinking, based on some other adult retellings of Alice, but it actually works better to not see the same thing repeated in a new version of the tale.
The female submissive parts were 3 or 4 stars, toss in submissive male part and I'd probably have rated this worse since I tend to skip. Don't care about that. Kept reading, wasn't bad, was even somewhat interesting, so that settles the rating on 4 stars.
Overall a wacky weird tale, but then Alice in Wonderland and derivatives almost always are. ( )
