For sixteen years, Alyssa Gardner has lived with the stigma of being descended from Alice Liddell—the real life inspiration for Lewis Carroll’s famed novel, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. But cruel jokes about dormice and tea parties can’t compare to the fact that Alyssa hears the whispers of bugs and flowers… the same quirk which sent her mother to a mental institution years before.
When her mother takes a turn for the worse and the whispers grow too strong for Alyssa to bear, she seeks the origins of their family curse. A set of heirlooms and a moth tied to an unusual website lead Alyssa and her gorgeous best friend / secret crush, Jeb, down the rabbit hole into the real Wonderland, a place more twisted and eerie than Lewis Carroll ever let on.
There, creepy counterparts of the original fairytale crew reveal the purpose for Alyssa’s journey, and unless she fixes the things her great-great-great grandmother Alice put wrong, Wonderland will have her head.

Alice in Wonderland spinoff?? Hello, awesome! I’m so excited for this book and check out the gorgeous cover art!
This does sound cool! I love spin-offs and re-tellings and Alice in Wonderland is one of my favorites! Great pick 🙂
This definitely is some serious artwork!! It is a little creepy though but definitely excited to read it 🙂
I had this on my WoW last week! I like how it’s not an Alice retelling but it still uses Alice as a background. Super curious to see where this will go!
This does sound interesting!
Thanks for sharing,
Dani
