My biggest issue with the book was that I had a hard time engaging in the story and I struggled to finish it. I probably would have stopped if it wasn't an ARC. I did like the idea of the of the backstory of the Queen of Hearts. How she become the evil Queen of Hearts, but to be the book dragged on never really picking up. I was hoping this book would be like Splintered (by A.G. Howard) but nope it wasn't anything like it. Pros: Does have some interesting takes on traditional Wonderland characters. Such as her brother is the Mad Hatter and is actually crazy. Not romanced focus (per say) it's more on becoming queen of Wonderland, her daddy issues, and jealously of new found sister. Cons: Could have done more, been more creative, been more wacky (it's Wonderland for Pete's sake). Especially since it is written from the villains side there is potential there for a good story. Note: that cover is so cute using the queen of hearts card. *Thank you to Edelweiss and HarperTeen for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Being the second book in the series doesn't mean it gets any worse. Dinah has the Spades and the Yurkei people and some others willing to fight the king. They get prepared for battle, but Dinah's head is swarming with weird (and possibly dark) thoughts.

This is the last book in the trilogy! It's really cool and filled with a lot of action as Dinah wages a war against the King of Hearts. The deaths of the many people she killed are put on her shoulders. She struggles with betrayal and heartache.

Molly Moon gets sucked into another adventure. Molly and her dog Petunia are brought into the 1800's and learn of a man who is obsessed with time travel. He struggles to get rid of her, as she ruined his plans. This book was surprisingly good.

I clung to every word of the audio version of this book for hours on a three day car ride. I took the ride twice. This book was amazing both times, with an exquisite vocabulary and a great plot overall! Igraine grew up in a very powerful family of sorcerers. They live in a magical castle that spews fire and own singing magic books. The only problem is, Igraine has absolutely NO INTENTION of being a wizard when she grows up. She'd rather be a proper knight! Just before her birthday, her parents are suddenly turned into pigs on accident! Igraine has to go on a quest to get giant hairs, which will turn her parents back into-well-parents! Along the journey she meets the Sorrowful Knight of the Mount of Tears, a knight who is haunted by his failure. He agrees to escort her on her dangerous mission back home. Only, when Igraine gets home, she'll have to use every knightly bone in her body to protect the singing books from someone more dangerous then she could ever imagine... --BKS reviews

I just finished it this morning. If I could, I would go to the library right now, and get the next book, but... I went yesterday, so I'm going to have to wait... NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would definitely recommend this book, for those out there who haven't read it. I love the way Zoey first tries to make peace with the House of Night 'queen bee' but becomes so much more wrapped up in it than she wanted, first running into her in the hallway on the first day with Erik, then getting invited to her ceremony, in hopes that Zoey will be driven away from the Dark Daughters, before taking matters into her own hands, as things just get stranger and stranger for the poor girl.

I started to read this book because the back cover of the book was seriously interesting: A girl finds out that the reason why she is socially awkward and has weak lungs & eyes is because she was genetically altered to survive under the sea. I mean, how awesome is that? (She can also talk telepathically.) I won't spoil the rest, but this book was, like, the second best book I've ever read. At first I had doubts about reading it, but now I can just escape a boring situation by thinking about it.I was

These books.. where do I start? I loved it! I got the entire series for Christmas, and finally finished...three years ago? When I was little I wanted to BE Mary Poppins. I mean seriously, who doesn't? This is one of my all-time favorites, and Travers really does a good job bringing the characters to life, to the point where you wouldn't be surprised to see them walking the streets or in your school.
