"I have to DNF this book. I just lost interest."

Octavia D' Haiti

"Stumbled upon this book which is the first in a trilogy. Loved the creative and imaginative backstory of the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland."

"This book is really good! I love the relationship that Wardley and Dinah has. I wish we could see more of Dinah’s feelings and how they contrast or connect with what’s going. The king sucks. We should have seen more of Faina Baker. "

Emeli Chavez

"It is the first book to a trilogy and it was amazing. The world building is incredible and makes it's own version of Wonderland. It's honestly beautiful. And if you're like me and you like twists, this is the book and book series"
