All the odd and strange aspects from Alice in Wonderland were in this book and I really loved how she incorporated them throughout almost as cool easter eggs to spot for those that are fans of the original tale. The author's way of describing things throughout the book was so whimsical and I feel that did wonders in bringing Hearts to life.

I did however enjoy the author's writing in this book. A lot of people told me that this book would make me cry but I was really only sad and I didn't care for the characters the way that I wanted to feel. Overall this book is very slow all the way through until you get 50 pages from the end and then I feel like it was very rushed. It's a good standalone and I really enjoyed the villain origin storyline, however I just found it to be mediocre when it came to plot and character development. I enjoyed this book but it didn't really live up to the hype for me.

Towards the end my heart completely broke 💔 and usually this is something I hate in a book but it was done so beautifully that I admired the tragic turn in the story! Never before have I known how a book ends but still been shocked my the ending 💧Įasily 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and quite possibly my favourite standalone book ❤️ The story is one of forbidden love and following ones dreams 🌹 The entire book was paced very well and had plot twists throughout! It genuinely made me laugh and I thoroughly enjoyed spotting all the little nods to the traditional Alice in Wonderland that we know and love 🎩👒🐰 Heartless is set in the world of Alice in Wonderland and follows the story of the creation of the Queen of Hearts ❤️ it contains all of the traditional characters and it’s packed with whimsical fun! 🌸 Heartless by Marissa Meyer ❤️ read this quite a while ago but it’s a book that has stuck in my mind so much that I think I’ll reread it soon! 🤍
