It was full of twists and turns that were not nessacarily expected, while constantly keeping the story moving forward.

I found I was easily reading for hours at a time, just trying to get to the end to find out what would happen.Įasily, ‘Alice’ was my favourite of the two, being full of mystery as both Alice and Hatcher try to remember who they are and their past. However, this being said, by not having the chapter breaks, it kept the fast pace of the story, and kept the suspense high. I found it rather intimidating not having those obvious places to stop, made the whole book feel longer. This may not bother a lot of people, but I use chapters a lot as they feel like natural stopping points. They were both just 300+ pages full of writing, with no chapter breaks. If I had to give a negative for these two books, it would be the same for the both they did not have chapters. Suspense, mystery, excitement and a very quirky romance- these books just kept you turning the pages, and longing to know what was to happen.Īs a mental health sufferer, I couldn’t help but chuckle at the idea of some psychotic symptoms being turned magically real- though I fear if that happened to some of mine!

Well what can I say these books did not disappoint. A sequel to Alice in Wonderland, with dark themes and secret magicians, giants and men that turn into wolves- what could be better? This series had me counting down the days that I could get my hands on it since I first saw it advertised by Titan books, and I had the horrible wait for both books to come out so I could blitz read the two of them back to back!
