The Looking Glass Wars

When a friend recommended this book, I wasn't that interested. However, I was desperately in need of a good book, so I tried it. When I got into the first chapter, I was hooked. I would read into the night, because it was very intense. It is basically a take on Alice in Wonderland, but a lot spookier. It claims as being 'the real version,' and that Alice in Wonderland was only the basis. It turns a lot of the characters into bad characters, and deepens their character. If you liked reading Alice in Wonderland, but if you found it too babyish, you'll enjoy this book.
