Alice by Christina Henry

Paperback

TBR Prompt: Retelling / Reimagining


Ooh, I really enjoyed this! Loosely based on Alice In Wonderland, this is a very creepy reimagining of what happened to Alice after she met the Rabbit, though the characters of Rabbit, Caterpillar, Walrus and Cheshire are very different in this book. This was a lot darker than I was expecting, but I loved Alice and Hatcher's relationship, and their journey to track down the beast; the ending was possibly a bit of an anti-climax, though it fit into the whole magical theme of the story. There is a sequel, The Red Queen, which I'm looking forward to reading.
