Unhinged
Unhinged: Splintered Book Two | A. G. Howard
Alyssa Gardner has been down the rabbit hole. She was crowned Queen of the Red Court and faced the bandersnatch. She saved the life of Jeb, the boy she loves, and escaped the machinations of the disturbingly appealing Morpheus. Now all she has to do is graduate high school. That would be easier without her mother, freshly released from an asylum, acting overly protective and suspicious. And it would be much simpler if the mysterious Morpheus didnt show up for school one day to tempt her with another dangerous quest in the dark, challenging Wonderlandwhere she (partly) belongs. Could she leave Jeb and her parents behind again, for the sake of a man she knows has manipulated her before? Will her mother and Jeb trust her to do whats right? Readers will swoon over the satisfying return to Howards bold, sensual reimagining of Carrolls classic. Praise for Unhinged "I really enjoyed the first book of this series, butUnhingedcranks the Wonderland experience up to 11. It's just ... WOW! The last few scenes dangle Alyssa's next adventure with shockers enough that I found my jaw needing a bit of assistance in coming off the floor. Write quickly, A.G. Howard! I need that next book!" --USA Today "Howard excels in sensory and sensuous descriptions." --Kirkus Reviews "As intense, dark, and weird as the first volume, this worthy sequel creates a parallel narrative that brings the action out of Wonderland and into Alyssas hometown." --The Bulletin of The Center for Childrens Books "A dark beauty fills the novel's pages, which will mesmerize teens with a taste for magic, romance or suspense. Unhinged lays the groundwork for a third book where anything could happen--it is Wonderland, after all." --Shelf Awareness

Book 2 in the Splintered Series a creative retelling of Alice in Wonderland. This is a dark story and I have to say I didn‘t see that end coming. And it‘s a great set up for the next book in the series!

Alyssa has chosen the human realm over Wonderland. But there is a certain netherling that refuses to let her go. I do wish there had been more of the dark chaos which initially drew me into this series, but I recognize Unhinged for what it is, a setup book. I know how intoxicatingly dark this series can be, so I am willing to give it another try and read book three.

3.5 of 5 ⭐
I did enjoy this book, it just seemed to drag some. Alyssa is trying to ignore the Netherling part of herself and live as a human with her love, Jeb. Her art and Wonderland have other plans. This book feels like there's always something about to happen but it takes nearly the entire book to get some action. A lot of betrayal and lies in this installment. Looking forward to reading the next one and praying for more action. #TeamMorpheus

BehindthePages This was a lot slower than the first one. 3y
ToniSwinehart6 @BehindthePages Completely, I still enjoyed it, but it was much slower. 🙂 3y

What a ride! This series is dark and twisted and so much fun! This one was action packed, and full of twists and turns that kept me guessing and wanting more! I love all the Alice references. There are some YA tropes, but I honestly don‘t care because the rest of it is so fun. The writing is evocative and the story is captivating. This series is like a guilty pleasure, but I don‘t feel guilty about it. Loving it! 😉 🐇🍄🕸🕷🦋

GypsyKat @Booknerd222 I love Alice in Wonderland too! They reference the original story a lot. I‘m almost done with this second book of the series. They‘re YA fantasy, they have semi complex plots, and there‘s a lot going on in them. They‘re dark and weird, and I‘m really enjoying them personally. 🙃 7y

It‘s been a busy weekend and I‘ve hardly read at all. I‘m just going to read one chapter tonight though. I‘m getting up earlier than I normally do since I‘m going into work with the hubs to train so I can sub for one of the secretaries when she‘s off. I haven‘t worked in an office for years, so I‘m a little nervous. But it‘s just an occasional gig, so I think it‘ll be ok. Wish me luck! 🤞

Lreads Good luck! You got this! 👍 7y

I stopped reading for a couple of years from depression and finally got well enough to start reading again. Sadly only got like five books in 2017. Working on my fourth in 2018 and will be done soon.

This book was really upsetting to me. I had read the first book in this series a couple years ago and had picked this book up a while back. My first attempt at reading this book I was disappointed that an amazing Alice in Wonderland retelling turned into a high school drama story. So I put it down. I picked it back up this week and I read almost to the end but I can't finish it. She tries to pack so much info and tell you so much it becomes slow.

bears_books Her scenes start to overflow with twists and words and information that its like she tries to fit everything in one scene. A small scene that really only spans 20 minutes turns into 15 pages. And theres so many twists and backstabs and deceit that you become bored which is the opposite of her goal. 7y

Seriously disappointed with this book. I waited so long for action that didn't happen until the last few chapters. It was so hard to keep track of who was backstabbing who and who had the upper hand at any given moment.

bears_books For real though! The constant plot twists became too expected and too hard to follow 7y

Alright, I'm 300 pages into this book and they haven't even made it to Wonderland. I feel like the entire book has been spent with one character lying to another and Alyssa getting into trouble with everyone. I'm getting really tired of the standstill nature.

I'm giving Unhinged a 3 out of 5 stars. Love the plot of the second book, but at times Alyssa's whining really started to get under my skin. Will be starting the third book later today and excited to read how the rest of the series plays out! 🐇🍵🎩

-sigh- I had such good hopes for this book. I had previously read the 1st and I loved the different aspect of Wonderland, but this, I could barely get to the 100 page mark. Too shallow thinking. This girl turned into this "oh everyone loves me and it's such a big burden" -sigh...again- I bailed. Maybe in a year or so it won't be so bad...maybe...

Karkar I agree, do not like it when they turn into THOSE books 😀 8y
