Quick Thoughts:
1. Loving this more the second time around.
2. Cole is probably the most perfect character ever. I love him to death.
3. I'm liking how intense Ali is. She's not the wimpy girl who has to wait for the hero to save her. She's the one that starts the fights and dives head in.
4. I like how it's not a full retelling of Alice in Wonderland. There's lots of little pieces that are similar but it's still very different. It makes it more interesting to read.

This book was not at all what I expected. I figured it would be Alice in Wonderland but with zombies. The only comparison to Alice in Wonderland is the character’s name is Alice and there’s a cloud in the shape of a rabbit. Everything else is 100% different. I love it!

At the start I was really unsure. I thought the main character was going to be super wimpy and that everyone else would have to fight zombies for her. Thank god that didn’t happen. She’s a pretty sweet character actually. She’s really badass and can take care of herself. It’s refreshing actually. I’ve never come across a teen heroine like her. I also really liked Cole, the main guy. He was a super hot bad boy. Which means he was super attractive. I love, love, loved Kat though. She was a really funny and entertaining character. It was really nice at those serious bits. I hope she’s more involved in the next book though.

The plot was really cool too. It had nothing to do with Alice in Wonderland. It was basically about a group of zombie hunters. I liked how the author made the zombies. They weren’t I want to eat your brains zombies. They were more spiritual let me bite you kind of zombies. It’s hard to explain but they were really cool. It’s hard to really change up zombies but this author did it.

I really enjoyed this book and I think everyone should give it a try! I’m really excited to move into the next one!
