Mad as a Hatter by Kendra Moreno

5.0

Fall down the rabbit hole and lose yourself in Wonderland! It's nothing like what you remember from all your childhood stories. Things are darker, scarier and it's inhabitants are all in a state of despair and fear. This book captured me and kept me entranced. I didn't want to put it down, but when I had to it still stayed on my mind. The author has take these characters that we already love and makes you love them even more. You just want to hug them and put them in a protective bubble. Clara is fierce. I love the toughness she exudes even while she's terrified on the inside. Yes, you will love the Hatter, but you'll also meet White and Cheshire and will be curiouser and curiouser. I definitely was not expecting to ugly cry, but this book gutted me. At one point, my husband asked if I was ok and gave me a hug. Bottom line- I LOVED it!! Perfect blend of fantasy, magic, steam, engaging story set in one of the dreamiest lands ever- Wonderland!!
