The book is out today! I loved writing this book. I've always been obsessed with Alice in Wonderland, and I love to explore ideas involving it. I'm excited to see where this series takes us all, and how much these characters grow. This is more of a reprieve between seriousness and showing Alice and Malcom's growing relationship without the war in the way. I hop you enjoy it!

Good.

The series continues this time from Malcom's point of view. Is he an ally or an enemy? You'll have to read this book to find out.

Pros:

1. It's a clean read.
2. It's novella-length. I could read it in one day.
3. K. Weikel is a talented wordsmith.
4. The cliffhanger is good.
5. The bonus content is a welcome addition.
6. It was interesting to see how the first two books aligned with this. Chiefly, the ending.
7. There is a lot of fantasy packed in this book.

Cons:

1. I don't see myself re-reading this in the future.

3.5 rounded up to a four. This book is very much an in-between book. It focuses on characters, but not much happens that feels like it will affect the rest of the story. I did enjoy being in the head of Malcom and it was really great seeing interactions between him and Alice. The ending was my favourite part because I think it holds a lot of promise for volume four. I am still really enjoying this series. They’re all short and intriguing.

This book took a different turn . I thought it was going to tell what happened after Alice woke from the coma . But I was completely wrong . This book was telling the story while Alice was in coma . How she and Malcom lost their memory and end up in a different world . Would you guess it's none other than Wonderland. I am a big fan of alice in Wonderland. So this twist was great for me . I loved this book . The shaping of the story is great .
It's a clean ya read . Recommended to everyone
