Such an interesting concept and the play on Alice in Wonderland! I like how we are learning the rules of the game and the world as the characters are-it keeps us on edge. I think Chota is supposed to be the comic relief character, but boy does he annoy me!

I read this because I liked the show so much. What can I say? It was amazing!
The Story overall is very interesting and you want to continue because you're intrigued to know what the next game is and why the characters are even here in the first place. 
In my opinion, some of the characters have more depth than in the show and are much more sympathetic. 
Since I read the Manga in german, I felt like the translation was a little bit weird in some places. What I also don't like is the sexualisation of the women, thats why it's only a 4 not 5-Star for me.

I really loved this book. I fell in love with the story because of the TV show, but I really love how the manga shows new elements and characterization that we don’t really get in the show.

There are sexualized depictions of women in some of the art, specifically cleavage and nudity (not graphic but very much implied/shown with strategic placement of hair or water).
