yes the hand story is devastating :(

[Maddie]

Hey Amanda!

[Shae]

Finished: 3 stars (view spoiler)[ I was a bit confused through the whole wonderland journey and I feel like it wasn't that easy to follow along. I did like the romance though! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

That was a bit I didn't like :p And I liked the events.

Hello! Finally, getting going on all these books, lol!

[Amanda]

Ch 10: of course Wonderland is all about disillusionment, but the revelations so far have been pitiful. Everyone is covering for everyone else, but no one tells the truth. (view spoiler)[ I'm so glad Jeb went with her, but I just wish they would just out there feelings for each other. I do not like Morpheus at all. (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

Ch 17: So, Morpheus is keeping some crazy secrets. (view spoiler)[ What's up with this Sister one who is a freaking spider! Who's smile did she steal and why does Alyssa need it? I hope Morpheus hasn't done anything to Jeb. I have a feeling Alison was more than just an Alice in this story. She had to have played a bigger part for her to be so adamant that Alyssa not ever visit Wonderland. (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

End: I loved that story! (view spoiler)[ I almost like Morpheus now. I'm so glad Alyssa found her voice and her mom will be ok. Oh, and of course, I'm super glad she got her guy! I'm a sucker for happy endings! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

So you'll be reading the rest of the series at some point?

[Amanda]

Definitely! Already reserved Unhinged at my library. Just waiting on it to be available.

[Maddie]

Ah so you're reading them all this month? XD

[Amanda]

I hope to at least get the 2nd done. It all depends on when I get it from the library.

[Maddie]

True true.

[Karen]

Opening chapter-quite strange. A real blend of styles. We'll see how it goes.

[Maddie]

For #1 Karen?

[Karen]

#1-18%-this is an emotional backdrop. Quite toxic relationships, that seem to be made worse by secrecy.

[Karen]

28%-the style of writing is quite exaggerated, but fitting. The setting is grotesque-but Alyssa's determination is commendable.

[Karen]

34%-up to ch8. The familiarity, but ever so slight differences, make for an unsettling experience.

[Karen]

Up to ch13. Morpheus is chameleon-like. Can't work out whether he's to be trusted or not.

[Karen]

Up to ch16. A dramatic moment. Love the tea party, though there's a sense of recklessness that is worrying.

[Karen]

Up to ch18 (view spoiler)[ Queen? That makes sense of what Zmorpheus is trying to get her to do. A get-out clause? (hide spoiler)]
