I didn’t think Alice In Wonderland could get any crazier… I was wrong. This was a trip, it was fascinating and it had so many twists and turns that I could barely keep up while keeping the original story and references in mind! Ready to fall down the rabbit hole?

The Wonderland Trials

All Alice Liddell wants is to escape her Normal life in Oxford and find the parents who abandoned her ten years ago. But she gets more than she bargained for when her older sister Charlotte is arrested for having the infamous Wonder Gene—the key to unlocking the curious Wonderland Reality.

Soon, Alice receives a rather cryptic invitation to play for Team Heart in this year’s annual—and often deadly—Wonderland Trials. Now she has less than twenty-four hours to find her way into Wonderland where nothing is impossible . . . or what it seems.

My Review

Thoroughly enjoyable.
Alice in Wonderland references with new twists and additional world building elements. It was interesting, exciting and as expected, full of nonsense.
The games were a fun touch, and I liked how the familiar characters were included.

The Looking Glass Illusion

Content Warnings

Moderate: Abandonment, War, Injury
Minor: Death

My Review

What a bunch of nonsense… intentionally so.
Lovely nonsense mixed together so you don’t know which way is up, or which way is down (or side to side for that matter).
The first book at least made a little More sense but this one was pretty chaotic. I still caught the train of thought (😜) and followed along. I still understood the twists and turns of the ultimate plot. I still followed the characters as they navigated the craziness.
All in all, I’m pretty tired… but I appreciate what the story did.

Would I Recommend This Book?

Yes, I would recommend but only if you are good at keeping a lot of threads in your mind at once.
