Wicked little take on a beloved classic!!! Great!

Wicked Wonderland by Eva Chase (the Audio Book) is an interesting and fun play on the original Alice in Wonderland story. I enjoyed the readings by Samantha Cook and Teddy Hamilton, though I like his better. She did an INCREDIBLE job with the lead character, Lyssa…but, I just couldn’t connect with her portrayal of the other (especially male) characters. I really loved readings by Teddy Hamilton…though his female characterizations were a little whiny.

Otherwise, I thoroughly enjoyed the story. Eva Chase seems to have a thing for re-writing fictional characters in her own fun, bizarre way….and she seems to like the 4-1 ratio with the characters. LOL. This is fine with me and I always enjoy her unique, quirky spin on beloved characters of old!!!! Great story!!!!!

I voluntarily received an Advance Copy of this audibook for an honest review.

it was interesting

This was an interesting take on the classic Alice in Wonderland story but I don't want to continue on to the next book. Don't get me wrong it was comparatively well written and I liked the main character. I just didn't appreciate all the random people having public sex around the town. I understand that the author was trying to create a mad world of hedonistic hopelessness. That sort of thing would have bothered me less if she had kept it in the club or after hours when all the town’s kids were safely tucked in their beds but taking the exhibitionism to the towns streets, square, and park in broad daylight was crossing a line. Thankfully she didn't go into detail. It may not bother other people but it soured the story for me. I like other books/series by this author just not this one.

Awesome retelling

I liked all the characters. MC was strong but not jumping right into the fight. Judging and watching the whole situation. No instant love or sex scene. Of course a lot of sexual tension but made story more interesting. Good story building. Looking forward to book 2.

INTERESTING STORYLINE

I am writing this review whilst listening to book 1 of this series. The story and plot is enjoyable. The narrators Samantha and Cook and Terry Hamilton. The only snag is that I cannot understand why there is a necessity for two narrators? Samantha did quite well with her male voices and Terry is good for the female voices. So,why the need for two narrators? Because when Terry read the female voices in his chapters, definitely the voices will be different when read by Samantha . The same applies vice versa for the male voices when read by Samantha! So please stick to one reader who can voice both males and females. That will make the story flow more smoothly. The idea of having two narrators to read on book is most unacceptable. I collect lots of fantastic books in my library and I get very upset to return books which I like because of this problem. I hope the publisher/Audible will take this comment into consideration for future books? Thank you.

Enjoyed!

A very intriguing story! There is so much going on in the Looking Glass world. There were a lot of serious and tense moments that I am really glad to have the romance/sexual chemistry going on at the same time. Eva Chase writes some great sexual build up and she does give us a full steamy scene as well. The guys are interesting and I really liked how all the original characters from Alice are all here! Really helped keep it a Wicked Wonderland :) This audiobook had a duet narration and I enjoyed that as well. The narrators did a fantastic job bringing us into the story.

10/10! I instantly fell in love with this book. Out FMC is strong, smart, and soft! Love her. All of the male leads were so lovable as-well! I can’t wait to read the next two books in this series!! I recommend them!

So cleverly written

Why did I wait so long to start this series?! I have had these books on my TBR list for quite some time and I just never got around to them but once I started the first book I couldn’t stop listening. This series is so cleverly written and I absolutely loved the narration. I can’t wait to jump right into the next book and find out what is going to happen.

Wicked Wonderland

I loved this story and the performance of the narrators. Teddy Hamilton's voice is great, but not much distinction between the characters. Still thoroughly enjoyed and looking forward to the next book!

Trip into Wonderland

This was a fun trip to Wonderland. It was cool to see familiar characters crop up in an uncertain way. It did seemed a bit short, compared to her other vooks, but what do I know. I'll be reading the while series.. eventually.
