Alice the Dagger by Ashley McLeo

5.0

Thank you to the author, Ashley Mcleo, for providing a copy of Alice the Dagger (The Wonderland Court Series book 1). In exchange, I have reviewed honestly.

Throne of Glass goes to Wonderland!
Alice is an assassin. When an anxious rabbit in a waistcoat appears and reveals her true identity, Alice's entire world flips upside down. Journey to wonderland with Alice, a handsome Hatter and pixie twins as they attempt to overthrough the usurping Queen of Hearts. This Alice in Wonderland retelling is a quircky, fun and exciting fae tale.

Alice the Dagger features, but is not limited to, the following themes:
○ NA fantasy
○ Fae
○ Retelling
○ YA romance
○ Corrupt royalty
○ Adventure
○ Tournament/Games/Competition

My overall rating for Alice the Dagger is…

4.5 Stars!

Ok, I am a huge Alice in Wonderland fan and an even bigger fan of fae! This book was exquisite! The adventure, the quircky incorporations in a traditional tale, the sass and bad-ass-ary (I swear, it's a word!), the handsome Hatter and the sly evil queen, all work together to make this book complete and empowering. I love the growing attraction between Alice and Hatter; like, who even knew the Hatter could be so sexually tantalising? I can't wait to see their romance blossom in the books to come!
