I have this and have been meaning to read it for ages, but just haven't picked it up! I'm excited to hear that you liked it, especially since there's that love triangle. I looove great imagery so I'm going to have to get this read soon--especially since I won't have to wait for the other books; :) Tee hee.

I won signed hardcover copies of these books (and from a bloggy friend too), so I felt bad for months, for not having read these books sooner. And you're so right about the love triangle - it could go that way!

Yo...I HAD NO IDEA THAT YOU READ THIS SERIES!?!?!?!! You should have Pili-pushed these books, I would have added them to the list! But then, I probably wouldn't have read them sooner, since I'm reading one Pili-pushed book per month. Slow me. And "Team Alyssa" is a good way to look at things! I'm hating the sound of the love triangle, but you hate them too, yet still love the series, so... hmm...

The love triangle is a bit of a stickler, I don't always like them either. I don't loathe them with a fiery passion of a thousand suns! They are sometimes just annoying, but I have read some that at least do it right!<br /><br />And while I haven't started them yet, there's always a chance Morpheus could become the central love interest! There was one series (won't mention here for spoiler reasons) that totally did this to us! We thought in book 1 she would be with this guy, by the next book we were in doubts!<br /><br />But anyway, great review! Really need to read this one myself too--along with several hundred other books!Jessica @ a GREAT readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07554254368211246669noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-19086285101425254372014-07-11T06:50:15.727-04:002014-07-11T06:50:15.727-04:00YAY!!

...YAY!! So happy to hear that you loved this book!!<br />I'm a HUGE fan of the series and as a lover of all things Alice in Wonderland my appreciation comes in a different way than yours. I love Anita's writing and the way she describes everything so visually! <br />I'm mostly Team Jeb because Morpheus is a bit too manipulative for my taste, but mostly in this case I'm Team Alyssa, I'll be going with whatever her choice will be best for her!<br />Unhinged was a bit torturous in the triangle part, but there's quite a few unexpected revelations a whole lot of Wonderland creepiness, so I hope you'll enjoy it too!!Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-54850218108293165932014-07-11T04:31:00.847-04:002014-07-11T04:31:00.847-04:00Great review sweetie. <3 I'm glad you enjoy...Great review sweetie. <3 I'm glad you enjoyed this book :) I did when I read it. But it's been so long. And now I know that I would dislike it :( Sobs. As book two was a two star for me, I think.. it was just very annoying to me :\ As I did not like Morpheus, lol. I did love Jeb. But then someone said bad things about him and now I'm unsure about that too. Sigh. I just don't care that much for this series (A) but I hope you will :D And ohh. I DO love those covers. So damn beautiful. <3 Thank you for sharing sweetie :) Carina Olsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10962924929801205597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634501776293792112.post-54510105619830641232014-07-11T03:25:09.844-04:002014-07-11T03:25:09.844-04:00Great review!

I read Splintered about a year ago and completely loved it but even when I required a copy of the sequel a few months ago I couldn't make myself pick it up because I know that the love triangle is going to drive me crazy... but I've read some reviews of Unhinged and they all say that it's amazing! Glad you liked Splintered and I hope you also like the sequel :) <br /><br />And I'm Team Jeb... but I do also love Morpheus ;)Zareenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10334293915875073920noreply@blogger.com
