Synopsis:

From the author of the Fate series and The Deep End of the Sea comes a fantastical romantic adventure that has Alice tumbling down the strangest rabbit hole yet. 

After years in Wonderland, Alice has returned to England as an adult, desperate to reclaim sanity and control over her life. An enigmatic gentleman with an intriguing job offer too tempting to resist changes her plans for a calm existence, though. Soon, she’s whisked to New York and initiated into the Collectors’ Society, a secret organization whose members confirm that famous stories are anything but straightforward and that what she knows about the world is only a fraction of the truth. 


It’s there she discovers villains are afoot—ones who want to shelve the lives of countless beings. Assigned to work with the mysterious and alluring Finn, Alice and the rest of the Collectors’ Society race against a doomsday clock in order to prevent further destruction . . . but will they make it before all their endings are erased?

Quotes:


- “That little bugger,” Wendy marvels viciously. “He thinks he can hack my system.” 

- “I got rid of my corset the moment I could.” 

Excerpt: 

A snort escapes Wendy. “What a bunch of fucking imbeciles.” 

“I want security beefed up,” is Van Brunt’s immediate response. 

Her face flushes red with indigence. “Did you not just watch what I did? There’s no way those freaks are getting through my system.” 

“Pride cometh before the fall, Ms. Darling. And no system is infallible. No harm can come from attempting to better our defenses. I’ll expect an update at our afternoon briefing later today.” 

She sighs, but grudgingly offers a salute.

  1. I will go non-Disney, Rumpelstiltskin. I liked how the princess used her wits to outsmart that guy.
