Go figure! Here’s a quick recap/breakdown of each story to give you a taste of what you’re in for.Įlizabeth Hargreaves can’t understand why everyone keeps calling her “Alice,” until she goes on an adventure of sorts and learns that she used to have an older sister of that name who went mad. It’s also strange to note that the story which was most grounded in reality was my favorite, and the oddest and most Alice in Wonderland -like tale was my least favorite. But I have to say, it’s a testament to Christina Henry’s talent that the stories are accessible and enjoyable despite this fact. I personally have not read Red Queen, so some of the references in a couple of stories confused me. Word of warning, however: if you aren’t caught up with both Alice and Red Queen, you may find yourself a little lost at times. Looking Glass is a collection of four interconnected novellas set in Christina Henry’s Alice world and gives readers some new glimpses into the lives of Alice and Hatcher, the main characters in this series. The nitty-gritty: For fans of Christina Henry’s Alice books, this collection fills in some of the blanks and gives readers a peek into the emotional lives of her characters. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from the Publisher in exchange for an honest review.
