I happened to come across this book in my local nerd store cafe and got myself a copy as I love Alice in Wonderland and horror so this book was right in my alley.
I'm always a little sceptic of retelling the old fairytales and stories but this was amazing.
One of the best books I've read this year.
It's dark, it's disturbing and scary CW: rape, drugs, kidnapping, human and sex trafficking, gaslighting and mental health illness.).
Yes it had some flaws like Hatcher's character could have been bit more in depth but it didn't bother me when looking at the book as a whole.

I highly recommend it if you like dark and twisty easy reads!
