I feel like this novella only exists as fan service. The pages are pretty much filled with both guys gushing and swooning over Alyssa. News flash: ALYSSA ISN'T THAT GREAT. AT ALL."How do I beat him?" - Jeb---Then, when he'd destroyed Alyssa's faith in her mortal knight, Morpheus would be there to comfort and win her. - MorpheusIt's becoming clear to me that Howard is treating this love triangle literally like a game in which Alyssa is the shiny prize. I don't like when authors do that. I don't l...

3.5 starsIt isn't a secret that I loved Splintered. That does not mean, however, that the story didn't have its faults, namely, a slightly forced love triangle and a very possessive and bossy main love interest that was, strangely enough, not the insane one of the two. Considering this novella promised to be exactly about the two things I liked the least about the novel, I was understandably apprehensive about reading it. I didn't doubt the novella would be a good read, - I trust in Howard's ski...

This is one of the novellas that don't complete the story.It shows Morpheus viewing Jeb's memorys and thus giving us a more detailed version of what Jeb has endured during the 1st book, when he wasn't with Alyssa.So you don't have to read it in order to understand some of the characters or for the story to make more sence.

THIS CAME OUT ON THE 22ND OF BLOODY OCTOBER AND I'M FINDING OUT ABOUT IT NOW? (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

The Moth in the Mirror is a novella which takes place between Splintered and Unhinged . Morpheus does not understand what Alyssa sees in the mortal, Jebediah, but he wants to better understand his rival for Alyssa's affections. He examines Jeb's lost memories of his time spent in Wonderland, but he may find out more than he's bargained for.This novella is the perfect hold over while waiting for Unhinged ! Brace yourself for this peek into Morpheus and Jeb's minds. My only wish is that

I feel so sorry about Morpheus... but he was a manipulative bastard - I can't forgive him for having been so.And Jeb *swoons*

A.G. Howard has a great gift for prose, crafting worlds, and honoring literary traditions. The only blemish in her Splintered series is that, for reasons I don't understand, the books want us to love Jeb, the main character's obnoxious human boyfriend, and mistrust/dislike Morpheus, the lovably deranged fae creature who not only wants our heroine's heart, but wants her to reach her full and impressive potential.This novella takes place right after the first book of the trilogy. It finds Morpheus...

I read this novella while longing to get my hands on Unhinged, the second book in the developing Splintered trilogy. It helped satiate my Wonderland hunger for a while and was well worth the ebook price. Don't let the title fool you, my fellow Jebutantes, it is full to brimming with Jeb feels. It also offers some Morpheus insight for all of our Mothling rivals!! I loved it.

It was nice to read from another character's pov.

Ugh, too much Jeb and not enough Morpheus.

No rating from me but it was SO fun hanging out in Morpheus's and Jeb's minds. Me after finishing writing:

4.5 Stars I Loved, LOVED, LOVEDDDDD this short story!!! Being inside Jeb's mind, seeing his side of what happened, what he went through while separated from Alyssa, and what was going through his head as he traveled through Wonderland was just amazing!! And Morpheus, ooh, he's so deliciously sexy as he's strategizing, and conniving, and manipulative, and so dam enticing!! And if you put'em all together, HOT dam you've got one dangerously seductive, bombshell of a "Son of a bug" as Jeb would say

“He could offer her an eternity of challenges and passion, of quiet, tender moments stolen in the depths of riotous flames and ravaging storms--tranquility amidst the chaos.” I enjoyed reading about what was going on in Morpheus and Jeb’s minds. Morpheus was finally able to understand what Alyssa sees in Jeb and it was nice revisiting the Splintered series. I do wish this short story was a little longer!

3.5 stars "Ah, but this particular human has much to teach me." The premise for this short story is Morpheus' desire to experience Jeb's memories while he was in Wonderland, to see what Al loves about him so much. Which he does, and we get to walk in the boy's shoes and see his every thought and insecurity. He couldn't make sense of Jebediah's luck, how a human could wield such power over a netherling queen. At the end of the day, I'm not sure how much good it did Morph to experience Jeb's m...

So, I'll be honest and say I went into this blind. Didn't really matter what it was about, it mattered that it was a short story that revolved around Splintered and that was really all I needed to get me to buy it! And I am in no way disappointed that I did!Blurb from Goodreads:An original ebook-only novella in the Splintered series, told from the points of view of both Jeb and Morpheus.

So this is just a little insight on Jebs point of view of things when he is going through them, which is quite nice seeing how he felt in those important moments that happens in the book. Also we see Morpheus, POV on how strong his feelings are for Alyssa that he will just not stop until she is with him !!Total love anything that has to do with Alyssa and Morpheus so I give 5 stars ;)

Quite a nice look into the minds of Morpheus and Jeb, and a nice refresher to the story.

This book has both Morpheus's and Jeb's POVs, but most of the novella is told from Jeb's perspective, giving us his take of certain events that happened in Splintered. Mercifully, the narration was done in 3rd person. I don't think I would be able to tolerate being in Jeb's head otherwise. He is not a bad guy at all, but I just don't get him. At first he wants to leave for London to study there and has a girlfriend, and the next moment he is all overprotective and obsessed with Alyssa. His fasci...

HowardIf you are etching to figure out what happened when Jeb was away from Alyssa during Splintered, or if you desperately need to be inside the mind of Morpheus with his sultry attitude and desire for a certain blonde then this novella will quench that thirst.Unmasking the events during Alyssa and Jeb's separation has all the class of A....
