Furthermore



Summary: Born as blank as canvas in a world brimming with colour and magic, Alice's pale skin and milk-white hair mark her as an outcast. Because, for the people of Ferenwood, colour and magic are one and the same. And since the disappearance of her beloved father, Alice is more determined than ever to prove herself and her own magical abilities.

To do so she'll have to travel into the mythical, dangerous land of Furthermore, with the help of a fiercely annoying boy named Oliver. But nothing in Furthermore is as it seems, and it will take all of Alice's wits to find her father and return him safely home.


Thoughts: Aaaaand here we are with another Alice in Wonderland retelling, the last for a bit, promise. But I wasn't kidding when I said I like retellings and Furthermore delivers with an especially unique twist in that it has absolutely nothing to do with our world. Even the world Alice originates from is new and interesting. The double-sided world-building was fascinating as well as the intriguing plot that constantly has you wondering what's around every plot twist. Furthermore offers a whole other look into the mysteries of Wonderland and, despite being a retelling, is interestingly original. 

Content: Magic and some mildly creepy scenes. Otherwise, good for all ages!
