I really wanted to love this, because I've been a huge fan of the series. But I had to put the book down in the third novella. I strongly disagree with the book's messaging about female sexuality and the value of being "innocent and untouched," as the book puts it. I have a big problem with equating a person's state of innocence or not innocence (i.e., guilt) with whether or not they have been the recipient of sexual touch. Messages such as this have the deep potential to instill shame in female readers—especially ones who are first learning about their own identity as a sexual being. And that message is even more destructive for victims of sexual assault, who didn't have a choice in whether they remained "untouched."
I couldn't finish the book after the scene in question, and I won't be back if more books are published in this series. And that makes me sad, since the author has created an imaginative, vibrant, and fascinating world.

Me encantó este libro! Lo único que no me gustó es que terminó, jaja. Pude disfrutar de los comentarios sarcásticos, seductores y, en algunas ocasiones, tiernos de Morfeo; la familia de Alyssa con Jeb; la rivalidad de Jeb con Morfeo; los momentos tiernos entre Thomas y Alison (quienes se merecen el mundo después de todo por lo que han pasado); la hermosa amistad de Jenara y Alyssa; el nacimiento del Príncipe de la Corte Roja; y sobretodo, la magia, poder, y valentía de Alyssa. Amé toda esta saga, la belleza macabra y mórbida del País de las Maravillas y sus habitantes. Todos y cada uno de los personajes de esta serie de libros tienen un lugar especial en mi corazón. Muchas gracias A.G. Howard por haber escrito todos estos libros

Grazie al cielo esiste questo libro, Morpheus mi era mancato moltissimo! Ma non è comunque abbastanza, andrei avanti per l'eternità a leggere di questi due *-*

though i had so much fun revisiting the splintered world, this collection of short stories merely acts as a filler to the little holes in the original books as well as extras. nevertheless, i still enjoyed reading about my faves alyssa, jeb, and morpheus. thomas and alison’s story was so bittersweet and so does jeb and alyssa’s too. morpheus, as always, never fails to crack me up. it was such a wonderful time reading it and i’m quite sad my journey with this series has come to its end. this series will forever hold a special place in my heart.

This book is a bitter-sweet ending to Splintered series :) it's both tragic and beautiful.
