Good creative use of Wonderland styling while telling a twisty and enjoyable tale of teen love.

Confession: I bought this book, as well as books two and three and a novella, on the strength of the cover and description alone. And I don’t regret it . . . yet. Howard’s version of Wonderland is every bit as weird and beautiful and twisted as the cover promises. (Hooray for a cover that isn’t a he...
The Reading Perusals of Rose Summers
Initial reaction: Oh man, this was a book I was very much looking forward to reading, and the imagery and dark qualities of the story really drew me in for a time, but unfortunately it became very difficult for me to read after a time because of familiar cliche elements and stuff that just didn't me...

This was curious. The bugs were almost too much for me at the beginning. I was deeply concerned for a bit that they were going to be prevalent throughout, but things toned down after the first chapter or so and they became less central. Alyssa is an odd duck, but she is strong. She's clever and ...

I really enjoyed Splintered, for the most part.Only one thing kept me from giving it five stars: JebHe is a controlling, overprotective douchebag Some examples: Page 15: Alyssa wants to go on a study abroad program in London, but " Dad asked him [Jeb] to dinner a couple of weeks ago to talk about th...
