Story
All Alice Liddell wants is to escape her Normal life in Oxford and find the parents who abandoned her ten years ago. But she gets more than she bargained for when her older sister Charlotte is arrested for having the infamous Wonder Gene—the key to unlocking the curious Wonderland Reality. Soon, Alice receives a rather cryptic invitation to play for Team Heart in this year’s annual—and often deadly—Wonderland Trials. Now she has less than twenty-four hours to find her way into Wonderland where nothing is impossible...or what it seems.

Story
With ailing family to support, Evie Sage's employment status isn't just important, it's vital. So when a mishap with Rennedawn's most infamous Villain results in a job offer—naturally, she says yes. No job is perfect, of course, but even less so when you develop a teeny crush on your terrifying, temperamental, and undeniably hot boss. Don't find evil so attractive, Evie. But just when she's getting used to severed heads suspended from the ceiling and the odd squish of an errant eyeball beneath her heel, Evie suspects this dungeon has a huge rat . . . and not just the literal kind.

Publisher's summary
"They vanish without a trace, disappear into the night . . .
Each year on the center island, one girl is chosen to be the next Mortal Queen of the idolized fae. The mortals praise these lucky girls, but their daughters are never seen again.
The fae realm is eternal night, where disputes are settled by chess matches, power is acquired through the most devious kinds of trickery, and seven illusive kings roam. The fae hide their faces behind masks and guard their glass hearts to keep them from shattering. But beyond the veil of this luxurious paradise, a dark secret simmers, for their Queens have disappeared.
When aspiring artist Althea is selected, she is desperate to avoid the same mysterious fate. With no one to trust, she conceals messages in paintings and receives anonymous replies from a stranger who slowly reveals the tale of a girl who outwitted the fae. Only if she is clever enough will Althea survive the fate of the Mortal Queens. As long as the king who cannot love does not claim her first.

Delightfully unpredictable!
I’m hooked! Rarely is there a storyline that brings the first to a sensible close, yet has you hooked and anticipating the next.
This author has multiple series. Each is so different in setting and character development that I never feel like I can predict the next turn.
I’m looking forward to the next installment!!!

fast paced whirlwind
You could say this book is fast paced, but in truth, it's a bit more of a whirlwind. You don't really have time to get to know the main character, Thea, before you're swept off into a completely different world. we're supposed to see that she has managed to survive in her own world, as hard as that is, but not really given the chance to make any predictions about how she'll fare in the Fae world. the development here is too vague. however, before you realize that, you're already in the Fae city, among the clouds, watching as Thea makes one mistake after another while others pick up after her. at no point does she use her mistakes to her advantage, and instead, uses three months of her short life to wallow in her room and paint and learn how to play chess. all the skills she supposedly has from the mortal world are generally...unused or useless. She does have some tender moments, but there is as little time to enjoy these as there is to get to know the main character - who has the same voice and personality as everyone else, which makes it difficult to differentiate her from the others - before she is suddenly making a new decision and a new mistake. if she is supposed to be cunning, she comes across as more of a blundering fool who, as her father is constantly in her head reminding her, is not prepared for the fae realm.
the world building among the fae is a bit odd too.. though if there was more history or explanation it wouldn't be as much of a problem. but it seems like the only reason for pranks is "power," though it is never explained what "power" does or how it is estimated, though it seems to be just the general perception other people have of you, is that you're powerful. if that is the case, Thea, who is supposed to be powerful at the end, is still incredibly... pathetic, and not in the sense of being worthy of our sympathy, but in the sense of, this kid is pitiful and the wrong sort of protagonist to convince me that she will succeed in the second book, even as the stakes get higher. if there was ever a beneficiary of Main Character Protection, this kid is it.
over all, too fast paced to be well developed, with one note characters that are easily interchangeable and indistinguishable. but I did finish it. it was compelling enough to finish.
