Bookworms Anonymous discussion

by Marissa Meyer

Catherine may be one of the most desired girls in Wonderland and a favorite of the unmarried King, but her interests lie elsewhere. A talented baker, she wants to open a shop and create delectable pastries. But for her mother, such a goal is unthinkable for a woman who could be a queen.

At a royal ball where Cath is expected to receive the King’s marriage proposal, she meets handsome and mysterious Jest. For the first time, she feels the pull of true attraction. At the risk of offending the King and infuriating her parents, she and Jest enter into a secret courtship. Cath is determined to choose her own destiny. But in a land thriving with magic, madness, and monsters, fate has other plans.

Can anyone tell me please is it worth reading Heartless?

I am probably going to start Heartless tonight. I have heard really good things about it but the last time I tried to start it I had to restart it like four times and gave up.

I heard that you either like it or dislike. I might see if I can borrow it from my Local Library.

Youtube has an audiobook version

Thank you, Sarah.

You're welcome. That's where I found the book because it's out at my library and probably will be for months. Stalking Jack the Ripper I haven't found though.

I found Stalking Jack the Ripper at my local library. However, I have not started to read it.

That one is booked out of my library for a while. That one's really popular here in Texas! Lol.

Hi, Laura - what format do you want it in - ebook or paperback?

Sorry, I should have phrased that better :D
I meant did people enjoy this book? Was it an easy read? :)

Heartless is easy to read. However, I have just started to read it, so I am not sure that I will enjoy it. Laura, if you read other books by Marissa Meyer and enjoy them. You will enjoy this book. I let you know if I like this book when I finish.

Thanks Jenny :) I'll look out for your review.
I've always been a Wonderland fanatic and I like it when a good story about it comes along.

Laura, I will put my review here when I finish the book.

I am half way through this book - I am enjoying Heartless so far.

Heartless is sweet book to read if you enjoy Alice in Wonderland or Beauty and the Beast

I have finished this book. I laugh at times with the way Marissa Meyer portrayed and entwine her animated and human characters. A very sweet fairytale done well by Marissa Meyer. 4 ★
