When she looked at her daughter‘s face, Dinah could feel the love for her child snaking its way around the black fury inside her. The fury would always remain, alive and hungry. But for her daughter‘s sake, Dinah prayed that this time, love would be enough to quench the flame.

pickWhat a conclusion! As far as originally retellings go, this is honestly one of the best I've read. Book one was setting up the world and characterizations, book two provided so many revelations that book three had to pick them up, go into detail, and what a show Oakes gave!
So much went into all the books & what made her into the Queen of Hearts because this is not a happily ever after tale, but the beginning of her reign.
Dinah chased a white rabbit, just beyond her reach. It turned and veered under rosebushes and vertically stacked tables piled with teacups. She turned a corner. It was gone.

pickReally enjoyed this series and narrator! These are books 2 & 3. The first is Queen of Hearts. An interesting and fab take on the queen of hearts from Alice In Wonderland. 🤗
pickI am fucking wrecked. Wardley! Bravo on you Colleen Oakes to fuck with my emotions so much.

pickI read this entire book last night and finished the trilogy. Three stars for this book and I recommend the trilogy. These books read really quickly. Took me about 3 hours to read this one.

pickThe final book in this trilogy was satisfying. It had a heartbreaking scene but it felt very much a necessary part of the story, revealing the fury that snakes through the queen‘s personality throughout the books. I admire the author‘s commitment to developing her characters in this YA series, when they could have been written more simply. Recommended even for adults.
Enjoying reading in my quiet reading corner today. What do you plan to do today?
I started this 3rd book in the trilogy about 1:30 this morning and I‘ve already read 75 pages. This trilogy is so darned good. I never would‘ve thought I‘d like it. It‘s the origin story of Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland. I‘ve never wanted to read Alice, and still don‘t. But I‘ve sure been sucked into this one. All because I needed a #letterQ book for #litsyatoz and my daughter loaned me book 1. Just sayin‘, Oakes is a terrific writer.
Day 3 of #7days7covers #covercrush
This is third book on the trilogy, just arrived from Amazon today! The backs of the books‘ covers are awesome!
@Avidreader25 I hope you‘ll play along posting your fave book covers, no explanation required!
If I had to pic a favorite for this month I think it would have to be A Darker Shade of Magic.
#FebruaryFaves
Finishing tagged book and starting the other today. Also going to a birthday party for the daughter of @Jennick2004 What are you all up to today?
pickThis one was my all time favorite in the entire trilogy! Highly recommend!
These books are so pretty & at last I have book 3. My Alice & Alice retelling obsessed heart is very happy right now. I feel a series binge coming soon.
pickI have never known a series to get better by the end normally the first one is fantastic and then by the 3rd they are crap but this was fantastic (received from #NetGalley for an honest review)
From the start the pedal was down and it was just go go go all the way through, I couldn‘t put it down
Pumped!!! November 7th~~~ ♠️♥️♦️♣️
I'm beginning to wonder if there are a few too many Retellings of Wonderland. There has been quite a few lately. #coverlove #YAedition
