so-soDick King-Smith, most famous for his book Babe the Gallant Pig, was an incredibly prolific author of 75-110pg-long children's books. I own a BUNCH of them, many unread. He's a bit hit or miss - someone who has written this many books pretty much as to be - but some of them are such wins that it's worth the effort of sifting through them. This one was right in the middle. I liked the concept, but the story didn't really go anywhere. I also didn't ⬇
pickThis book left me numb and cold in the best possible way. I couldn‘t get enough as I turned page after page on the edge of my seat. Although developing the MC felt a bit slow, it was necessary to build up that way. An excellent telling of a story we all may have THOUGHT we knew already. A refreshing take on an old classic. I thoroughly enjoyed a different perspective and Meyer‘s ability to covey absolutely nail down the human range of REAL emotion

pick4.9⭐️ Alice‘s adventure in wonderland take the dark turn in this story. There is magic and murder and mayhem and I definitely suggest checking trigger warnings. This is definitely not your normal fairytale, and it gives life to characters that are such gruesome nasty people that you love to hate. I was not the biggest fan of Alice during the first part of this book, but by the end she is a bad ass, though Hatcher is my favorite Character.

Reading material for my trip to Disneyland Paris!
Interesting to see how surrounding myself with the language helps and makes my trip even more fun!
I'm so excited.
I want to get a picture with Alice reading it
(Going June 2023)
pickThis book is fantastic. The writing, the characters, the absolutely unsettling setting all work wonderfully well. Be warned, it‘s also not for the faint of heart. There are some deeply dark and disturbing moments throughout. Do a little research before you decide to pick it up yourself. And if you do decide to accompany Alice down the rabbit hole once again, know it‘s well worth it.
