So so brilliant. Loved every minute of it. Dark, mysterious and quite a lot of sarcastic humour. However there are a few scenes that could be hard to read for some but very important with some very important topics.tqlikesbooks's review against another edition

"I've been known to visualise killing up to six people each morning before breakfast."
A fun, edgy Alice in Wonderland retelling with a pansexual trans girl protagonist, who makes questionable decisions but you can't help but root for her.
Y'know YA Contemporary is so not my genre (it wasn't even when I could be considered a 'Young Adult'), but somehow I can always trust Juno to deliver an thoroughly enjoyable story. I like the decadence and excess of her 'London Trilogy' (actually just very loosely related characters/stories in the same setting). I like the humour. It's just a jolly good time.
Did it veer into cheesy British SOAP levels of dramatic ridiculousness for the finale? Absolutely! Did that ruin my enjoyment? Not really!
