Heartless

gretchen723 shared a tip "This story of the young Queen of Hearts was perfect in every way. What started as a young girl with hopes and dreams turns into the Queen of Hearts we know from Alice in Wonderland. Beautiful story with romance, plot twists, action and more. It was everything I hoped it would be and more. 10/10 recommend!"

andie_7805 shared a tip "God it was so good! The writing really brought the world alive and made each of the characters so perfect that it was so hard to say goodbye. Definitely one of my new favorites."

nicolemarie shared a tip "Made my heart big and plump and full of love! Then ripped it out, tore it apart, and stomped on it for extra measure. I both loved and hated this book. Good luck if you decide to read it. Keep tissues nearby"

ShalainaLalonde shared a tip "This book is really well done, and I actually had real physical reactions, and actually was hit hard and couldn't read for a few days cause this book hit me hard, It was an amazing read"

grace_lewis_8234 shared a tip "I absolutely love reading this book! Tons of twisting turns, with hilarious fun, and heart-wrenching tragedies! Heartless is a masterful retelling, more meaningful look at the queen of hearts and her backstory!"

emma_trueblood_7879 shared a tip "This book left me in a reading slump for sooo long. I loved this book so much but the ending still has me torn up. My friend and I occasionally rant about this book even though we read it a long while ago. Definitely recommend."

lashmi_singh shared a tip "If you liked this one, then read Cinder by this author. The entire Lunar Chronicle series is fantastic. Another one like this is Radiance by Grace Draven."

kaitlingratia shared a tip "The origin story of one of the greats Wonderland characters, this story broke my heart in the best of ways! I just had to stand by and watch this character go nuts, and I couldn’t help at all. But, if you’re going to lose, this is as good a reason as any. (Romance and Wonderland madness wrapped into one — I didn’t see much coming and for those few I did, they didn’t reveal the way I thought they would. This novel will NOT disappoint.) #wonderland #rewrite #romance #origin_story ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

sydnee_nevins shared a tip "One of my favorite Wonderland adventures and it's all about the origin of the Queen of Hearts! It tugs at your heartstrings and will make you cry! One of my favorite reads!"

ayaa_2247 shared a tip "Absolutely shattering. It’s beautiful, the writing made me forget that i was actually reading and believe i was in their world for a hot minute. The ending killed me and the only sad thing about this book is that it’s a stand-alone and no matter what that’s all i ever will know about the characters. If you want a good retelling to cry to with romance definitely add this to your Tbr!!!"

ellie_p. shared a tip "It’s probably the best stand-alone I have ever read, if you are a fan of Wonderland (especially the Queen of Hearts) you will love this book!#fantasy #standalone"

bethanyy shared a tip "i’ve never read a book that me feel completely devastated for a fictional character. it’s so difficult to reread (in a good way) because i cry every single time i read it. you know it’s a story about the queen of hearts so it shouldn’t have so many plot twists but oh my gosh i was amazed. the best adaptation about the queen of hearts by far"

valerie_4193 shared a tip "This book is the origin story to the queen of hearts. What I really liked about this book is that she was never a bad person all she really wanted was to build a bakery with her friend. She also falls in love and it’s such a sweet romance. I really liked that it was until the end when we finally see what made her the way she is all she wanted was vengeance but it got out of control and led to the queen of hearts we know today."

kaylin_g shared a tip "It was such a good read and it broke my heart and made me cry so hard! It had me sitting at the last page staring at it because there had to be more that couldn’t have been the end😭"

deleted_user_1610667684600 shared a tip "I think so. It is an interesting read with a satisfying end. If you like romance and retellings than you would most likely love this book."

lexi_francescut shared a tip "it was such a good, well written book. broke my heart to pieces. 100% would recommend, but i would prepare to not get the ending you want."

ashley_lawrence_9307 shared a tip "This in my all time favourite book! It takes you down so many different twists and you won't regret starting it because you'll never be able to put it down!! 10/10"

grey_janocko shared a tip "The way marissa writes is just so compelling. Like the details of how she friggin describes things are good. I couldn’t recommend this book more."

katielong_320 shared a tip "I am absolutely in love with this book. I could not put it down and I could not stop talking about it. I have 3 people close to me reading it now. Such an amazing book!"
