A review by desertdwellingbibliophile
Alice by Christina Henry

adventurous dark tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

A horrid (in a good way) retelling of Alice in Wonderland. Henry did a fabulous job imagining a horrific version of a beloved classic.
