Ever Alice


by  


I’m not a huge Alice in Wonderland buff, but I do love retellings and continuations of classic stories, and that is what originally drew me to this book. My interest was peaked to see what has happened to Alice, now age 15 after her adventures in Wonderland.

And boy, was I in for an emotional rollercoaster! I find stories that are not based my own relatable reality really draw you in and make you more invested, and this was definitely the case. The Wonderland speak made me work to read the story and keep up with the characters and also made it easier to relate to Alice’s discomfort and confusion. Being written by opposing first person accounts from both Alice and the Queen of Hearts point of view added another dimension to the story and the up and down emotions of the book.

I don’t want to give two much away, but this was a very relevant fan sequel for the Alice fandom. I highly recommend this book snd just want to say that the ending gave me a very emotional reaction and left me thinking out Ever Alice for a while afterwards.

Ever Alice by H.J. Ramsay is due to release August 1, 2019.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Red Rogue Press through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
