Descend into Madness…

Clara spent her whole life fighting in courtrooms for the downtrodden, the strange ones, the abused. It’s only natural that when a man with rabbit ears on his head comes to see her, she doesn’t blink an eye…

...until he opens a portal and drags her to Wonderland.

But this isn’t the world she’s read about at home. This world has been twisted, poisoned by none other than the Red Queen.

There’s a prophecy, the only chance Wonderland has of survival. Clara is foretold to defeat the Knave and claim the Hatter’s heart. But there’s a problem. The Hatter is insane and Wonderland is full of unspeakable horrors. Death waits behind every tree. If the Beezles don’t get you, the Bandersnatch will.

Can Clara embrace the madness and her destiny, or will the reign of the Red Queen continue?

This isn’t the Wonderland you know…

**This is a Horror Romance retelling of Wonderland filled with all the creatures and characters you thought you knew. It contains gore, adult themes, and a sexy Hatter.**

If you like Sarah J Maas, Gena Showalter, J.R. Ward, Laura Thalassa, or Jennifer L. Armentrout, you won’t be able to put down this highly addictive twisted fairy tale.

This book and the following are impossible to put down. The twisted Alice and other characters are so interesting. Her characters are all painfully motivated and well described. You hate the red Queen as much as you adore the quirky and tragic sons, and the strong but loving women of the triad. Worth every penny and I can't wait to read the rest of the series, plus any others she puts out!

Demora um pouco para a história “andar” mas depois, é uma leitura bem gostosa. Eu achei que ela poderia ter feito o chapeleiro um pouco mais “louco”

THIS.
BOOK.
OH MY FREAKIN' GOD. 
I LOVED THIS BOOK SOO MUCH!!

Okay....going to try to calm myself down a bit because if I don't, I'm going to dolphin wail because I make absolutely no sense when I get all fan-girl. But, guys, this book is ridiculously amazing and has to be my favorite retelling of all time. The Hatter has always been my favorite character in the classic, the movies, other retellings, etc, and this book made me go mad for the Hatter all over again. I'm still swooning so hard right now and I want this review to be coherent and readable, but I'm honestly writing so fast because my heart is still skipping at what I just read. 

This book isn't the happy and sweet Alice in Wonderland like you all know, or even a sweet retelling. The author classifies this book as a horror romance retelling of Wonderland and that's the best way I can honestly put it as well. It's the same Wonderland you know when it comes to the characters, but at the same time, it's not. It's neither here, nor there (sorry, Wonderland humor here) The characters are very different then you probably know them, but--in my opinion--I love the characters and this book more than the classic.

(Don't throw tomatoes, just my opinion! LOL)

There's a darkness to these characters that hits me deep in my heart. Wonderland isn't filled with light, but darkness and chaos. Wonderland is dying because of the new Queen, a Queen Clara Bee and others are destined to face in a battle for the good of Wonderland. I won't say anything regarding the Queen because, spoilers, but I will say that twist was phenomenal! 

The characters in this book are what make this story so outrageously beautiful and dark. The Hatter in this story is truly mad, lost in his dark mind and losing himself a bit more every day. Clara Bee--the woman he's destined to lose his heart to--believes he's more than his madness though (couldn't agree more!) and I love her for it.

"I see the beauty in his madness. I see the man beneath it all, his soul begging for someone to bring him out of the loneliness."

Mad or not, the Hatter is a freakin' god amongst us poor morals. His madness intrigues me like no other character has before and I love how the author made his character so dark, yet, so....well, so Hatter. He's a tortured soul looking for light. Looking for his Clara Bee, who understands him and embraces his utter madness.

"Tempting fate would be great except you still owe a kiss. If I lost my pants, I'd lose my chance, to touch lips to lips." 

"Suit yourself, My Dear Hatter, if that's really what you're about. But I hope you know exactly what you're missing out." I sing back.

"I like when you do that," he replies softly, his fingers gently squeezing mine. 

"Do what?"

"Embrace my madness."

Clara, or Clara Bee, as everyone calls her, character surprised me so much. She started off as a bit stiff--lovable and kind, but a workaholic with no joy in her life besides her work--and then she falls down the rabbit hole (god, I love saying that phrase) and enters Wonderland and her personality really shines through. She's sweet, always rooting for those who have no voice, and decides that she wants to help Wonderland and defeat the Red Queen to save those around her--especially her Dear Hatter. I LOVE how she's so much like the Hatter, embracing his darkness and filling his heart with light and humor, and doesn't let anything back her down. She makes him feel something other than despair, and *clears throat* their chemistry is...it's freakin' hot, okay? 

"Clara Bee, oh, Clara Bee, what is it you're doing to me?"

I summon the little bit of bravery I had before I came downstairs and speak. "Hatter, I'm in trouble it seems, I believe you promised to make me scream." 

*THROWS PHONE ACROSS THE ROOM BECAUSE THE HEAT OF THAT QUOTE*

I CAN'T WITH THESE CHARACTERS!!

I want to go to Wonderland soooo badly! But only if I get to be Clara Bee. 

And, guess what? There's going to be two more books in this trilogy!!! The White Rabbit and the Cheshire Cat will get their own stories!! I'm geeking out so much because not only will I get to hear more about the Hatter and his Clara Bee, I also get to learn more about these characters! I'm a huge fan of Kendra Moreno now and I'm running to get my signed hardback from her. 

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I can't say enough good things about this book and I'm telling you, you need to get this book ASAP. If you like retellings, dark fantasies, or anything Wonderland, you'll love this novel.

Alice in Wonderland is a beloved classic story that most people know the general story off. The characters are iconic and much loved. The shatter most of all so a great hero for any romance novel. This spin on wonderland was inspired and and the twist on the different male characters intriguing.

What would happen if the Alice wasn’t quite the nice curious girl painted in the book we all love. What if she was something darker. What would happen if she went back to our world and told everyone about what she saw? Nothing good. How would she feel about wonderland then? What would she do if she ever returned there?

Enter Clara into this new wonderland. Things are not much like in the book. The Hatter is totally insane. Everything from the classic tale is a perverted version of what she read. Yet she has a mission to defeat the Knave and calm the Hatter who fascinated and attracts her.

I loved this book. I have read a few different romance takes on wonderland but this is by far my favourite. The Hatter is truely crazy and you can see why (don’t want to spoil too much) what he has gone through would send anyone that way. The heroine truely is that. Both her and the Hatter our just very appealing characters. All the secondary characters especially the men that look to be getting their own stories were fascinating. You learnt just enough about their stories to intrigue and want the next book without it taking away from the main story and romance. This book is fast passes and emotional. Their isn’t tons of ‘sex’ scenes so if you like that in your books you’d be disappointed still has one good one 😉.

I didn't exactly know what to expect of the book. When the author introduced her book in a Facebook group I thought the idea sounded a lot like Dorothy must Die, the series that gives a darker twist to The Wizard of Oz. Since I rather liked said series and since the authors introduction caught my attention I purchased the book.
And oh my gosh, how glad I am that I did.
First things first, the only thing this series has in common with Dorothy must Die is, that it puts a dark twist to a fairytale land. That's about it.
First of all I was pleasantly surprised that the mc is an adult woman instead of a teenager - I might very well be the only one who was surprised at that. - so the story and the writing has something more adult about it. I might be in the opinion that she took her fall down the rabbit hole a little to easily, I am not entirely sure about that yet.
I love the writing style and fell absolutely in love with the Hatter and to see him struggle with his madness broke my heart.
I can't wait for the next book in the series to see how the story continues.
