Representaion In Favor Of Books The Search for Alice (Dreaming of Wonderland #1)
When Kallie Bennett, a jaded teenage girl plagued by her alcoholic mother and her peers molded out of sheer bubble gum perfection, chases after Alice in Wonderland herself, she ends up lost in her own version of Wonderland, which forces her to face her utmost fears and introduces her to familiar characters with a dark twist. Among these characters is Ches, a gorgeous vampire with a conflicted conscience, who becomes Kallie’s guide and blossoming love interest. She also crosses paths with Queen Hartley, a manipulative witch who has the power to strip away one’s memories and imagination, which brings a bone chilling new meaning to “off with their heads.” In The Search for Alice, Kallie starts to realize that her Wonderland is just as frightening as her own reality and that she cannot always run away from her problems. She must figure out a way to defeat Queen Hartley and return home before it is too late, but she soon learns that escaping Wonderland means leaving Ches behind forever.Rating Regarding Books The Search for Alice (Dreaming of Wonderland #1)

I received 'The Search for Alice' by Amy Koto free in exchange for an honest review.When I first started reading this book, I was not quite sure what to expect. I was very quickly surprised! The only reason I did not read this book in one sitting is because I had to work. The references to Alice in Wonderland made me feel like I was reading a familiar story, but this book definitely has a darker twist. I love how Amy Koto tells the story from the perspectives of the two main characters! TheI adore Alice in Wonderland. This book is incredibly important to me. I am always very careful with retellings. I received The Search for Alice: Book One of the Dreaming of Wonderland Series by Amy Koto as birthday gift from my friends. And frankly, I did not expect much from this book. But I was wrong and you cant imagine how happy I am about this mistake. This is a delightful book. Amy Koto not only did a great job, she gave a new life to my favorite book and I am very grateful to her for
The Search for Alice is wonderfully written and a captivating twist on a classic tale. Amy Koto has done a great job of incorporating modern fantasy in a way that resonates with her readers. I am a high school teacher and I am always looking for books that will engage my reluctant readers. I was able to share this book with a few of them and they loved it. My most reluctant reader immediately related to the character of Kallie and she ended up finishing the book in 2 days! I've never heard her
Ive never really been a fan of fairy tales but I was interested by this as it sounded intriguing and I was inquisitive about the darker take on a classic tale. I found it a little slow to start for me but it soon picked up pace and interest quickly. I found the references to the classic tale very clever and fun. I especially liked the character of Queen Hartley. She was very dark and it really added to the story. The main characters of Kallie and Ches were good also. I thought the writing style
Fun book. Although it seems to be for young teens and young adults , I really enjoyed it (I'm 50!). But I love a good twist to an old fairy tale. So many unanswered questuons, looking forward to part 2PS. If it makes it to theaters I'd love to go see it😉
I won this book from the giveaways at Goodreads.com in exchange for an honest review.I never thought of myself as a character reader, but I suppose I am. There wasn't much character building in this book and for that reason I didn't really feel attached to any of them and in turn didn't really care what happened to them. The story was kind of all over the place between Wonderland and the MC complaining about her life and the people in it. It was just an okay read for me, I wasn't really pulled
Fast-paced Fairy Tale Fun!I give this book 4.5-5 stars. I like bingewatching TV shows and I was able to basically binge-read this book. It dives right into the story which I really like. I don't like when books have too much setup and this book hooked me from the beginning. I love twisted fairy tales but this book had a lot of heart too.Favorite character: Queen Hartley. I love a villain to root for and there was something really wicked and alluring about this character.Ches is kind of like
