A Court of Hearts and Hunger by Rebecca F. Kenney
4.0

While I did enjoy A Court of Sugar & Spice a lot more, I still had a lot of fun reading this book.

I loved the Alice vibes with The White Rabbit, Cheshire Cat and Rebecca’s take on the Queen of Hearts. It was so dark and I loved it. I like when morally grey characters are genuinely morally grey and just not A-holes and people call them morally grey. The White Rabbit was genuinely a questionable character but I loved him for it.

I loved reading more of Fin & Clara. I loved seeing how strong Clara is and learning more about her background. The plot kept me on edge and I didn’t feel like the story dragged at all. Between the two plot lines, I was entertained the whole time.

That ending has me eager for the next book though. I’m so ready to see where the story and characters go next!
