Summary:
This stunning debut captures the grotesque madness of Underland, as well as a girl’s pangs of first love and independence. Alyssa Gardner hears the whispers of pests and flowers-precisely the affliction that landed her mother within a mental hospital years before. This family members curse stretches back to her ancestor Alice Liddell, the real-life inspiration for Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Alyssa might be crazy, but she manages to keep it together. For now.
When her mother’s mental about Splintered health takes a switch for the worse, Alyssa learns that what she thought was fiction is based in terrifying reality. The true Wonderland is a place considerably darker and even more twisted than Lewis Carroll ever allow on. There, Alyssa must move some assessments, including draining an ocean of Alice’s tears, waking the slumbering tea party, and subduing a vicious bandersnatch, to fix Alice’s mistakes and conserve her family members. She must decide whom to trust: Jeb, her beautiful best friend and key crush, or the sexy but suspicious Morpheus, her instruction through Wonderland, and also require dark motives of his very own.
