I had the pleasure of receiving this as an e-ARC and voluntarily will be giving my honest review. The adventures continue with them all going to Wonderland to help Snow White regain her Castle. Absolutely loved this story and can’t wait to read the next book as they head to Oz to see what adventures they get into!!

“Can a gentle heart survive the madness beyond the looking glass?

Snow never imagined she would join a rogue band of heroes, yet fate draws her into a quest that spans realms.

Their journey leads them to Fairiest—Snow’s long-lost kingdom. But the homecoming is nothing like she imagined. The Queen of Hearts has taken control, her soldiers patrolling every street and twisting familiar places into something unrecognizable. Worse, Snow’s own memories don’t match what she sees. Landmarks feel wrong, faces blur, and the palace halls she once knew are strangers to her.

To survive, the group must rely on courage and each other as they slip through the occupied kingdom toward a portal into Wonderland.

But Wonderland is no refuge.

Its laws are broken. Its riddles bite. Smiles hide danger, and truths bend until they shatter. With every step, Snow feels her memories slipping further away—revealing gaps and secrets she can no longer ignore.

Surrounded by madness and hunted by enemies, Snow must find her place among a group still learning to work together, all while uncovering the truth about her past, her kingdom, and who she is meant to become.”

HEART AND MADNESS

This dark fairytale retelling absolutely captivated me. The adventure continues as Snow joins her rogue band of heroes on a journey to Wonderland in order to help her reclaim her castle — and nothing is as simple as it seems.
Watching Snow return to her long-lost kingdom of Fairiest only to find it twisted under the rule of the Queen of Hearts was both eerie and emotional. The way familiar places feel wrong, memories blur, and even the palace feels like a stranger adds such a haunting layer to the story. Wonderland itself is no safe haven either — it’s chaotic, dangerous, and beautifully unhinged in all the right ways.
I loved the darker tone woven through the madness beyond the looking glass. The tension, the shifting truths, and the way Snow slowly begins uncovering secrets about her past kept me fully invested. The found-family dynamic continues to grow, and I really enjoy watching this group learn to trust and rely on one another.
This series keeps getting better, and I cannot wait to see what happens next as they head to Oz for their next adventure.
If you enjoy fairytale retellings with a darker edge, layered world-building, and emotional stakes, this one is definitely worth picking up.

Fairytales in a new light

All of your favorite and familiar characters from childhood in a new setting. Definitely worth reading in order, but you can absolutely take these books individually. I started with the ARC for Snow, made it 2 chapters, read the first 3 books, restarted Snow, and now I’m ready to count the days until Rapunzel’s story is released.

Suzanna Lynn has that magic that not every author can achieve. While we know these characters, she makes them into new people with new stories that seem like a natural progression and not forced. It makes for a fun read that is easy to get lost in. Sadly, that makes the books go fast and now I have to wait for the next!

This book was giving to me as an ARC this is my honest and voluntarily review. This series has been so amazing . This story felt like stepping into a living fairy tale. I just love the retelling our favorite characters and stories in this case Hook , Red, Rapunzel and Lycus go together to help Snow saver her kingdom. Snow is strong, brave, and easy to root for, and her journey is both emotional and empowering. The relationships, friendships, and moments of self discovery add real depth to the adventure . I just can’t wait to see how hook gets to Oz to save his love . I can’t wait to read the next book .

This series is so great for upper middle grade readers who love fairytales but need something a little more grown up. This book is told from Snow White’s point of view and our group, headed by Captain Hook, end up in Wonderland as they seek to remove the Red Queen from the throne of Fairest, Snow White’s Kingdom, and discover the whereabouts of the maybe Evil Queen. This book contains elements of several fairytales and combines them in unexpected ways. It is sure to entertain middle grade, YA, and adult readers.

I received a free advanced copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

I was lucky enough to ARC read this book, and my honest opinion is that I fully enjoyed this story. The adventure continues as we head into the confusing Land of Wonderland. During this adventure, Hook, Red, Rapunzel, Lycus, and Snow travel to Wonderland to help Snow save her kingdom. While on their journey, they meet several complex characters and deal with a pretty neat world. Will they defeat the queen of Hearts, or will she make it impossible to get to Oz to save Hooks Love. Read the book & find out what happens to gang and where things go to next

[Rachelle · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed this book. This was the first book I’ve read in the series, but the author gave enough background so that I wasn’t confused at all. This book brought me back to watching Once Upon a Time, which was one of my favorite shows. The characters are so fun, each one of them working together to help Snow save her kingdom. I loved trying to figure out what character was from what fairytale. Hook is of course my favorite, but I loved Snow. Her relationship with her stepmother was so fun, and I loved the twist ending. I can’t wait to see how Hook fares in Oz!

This story (and series) has all the things you'd want in a retelling of the fairy tales we've grown up with. Seeing how this author was able to combine stories and not just have it about Snow is fantastic. This series is amazing for those who want something extra in their fairytale collection! it had me staying up late to read and wanting to read. If you enjoyed watching once upon a time then let me say you will LOVE this series!

Disclosure: I received an advance reader copy from the author and am leaving this review voluntarily and honestly.

Snow’s Wondrous Land is a magical and heartfelt addition to the Untold Stories series. The storytelling is immersive, Snow is a strong and engaging lead, and the emotional depth makes this fairy-tale retelling feel both familiar and fresh. It fits beautifully within the series and will be a wonderful read for fans who enjoy enchanting worlds and character-driven stories.

The book was given to me as an ARC and this is my honest and voluntary review.

I must admit I wasn’t completely prepared for the wild ride this story was. The twists and turns, the motley crew of characters and the incredible adventure had me buckling up for the ride.

I found myself totally immersed in the fantastic lands and rooting for the underdog.

You’re never too old for a fairy tale and this one has it all!!

[Allison · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love how this book brings all of the fairy tale characters and pieces of their stories that we know and love together in a fun, new story! The way Wonderland is written is nothing but pure, magical enchantment. I can’t wait to see what this unlikely band of heroes can accomplish next, because saving Fairest simply isn’t enough for Hook.

this one was a little harder to get through for me but it was in no means a bad novel
we met more characters and the different concept of the worlds was actually pretty cool
