I genuinely enjoyed this, though I should go ahead and make one thing very clear (and please don't hate me for this!): I'm not a fan of children's classics at all. This story combines multiple retellings of stories I genuinely do not care about: Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, and The Wizard of Oz. I'm seeing a lot of reviews from people who do like those stories, or at least the films, saying they hated this book, so I guess your interest in picking this up should probably weigh heavily upon wh...

So years ago Andy Weir (of The Martian fame) wrote and drew a fanfic graphic novel where Alice of Wonderland, Dorothy of Oz, and Wendy of Neverland cross paths. Since he's a terrible artist he had Sarah Andersen (of Sarah Scribbles fame) redraw the whole thing. This was a lot of fun seeing these three girls mix it up across their make-believe lands with Captain Hook and the Wicked Witch of the West. Weir doesn't attempt to write the dialogue in period. It's thoroughly modernized. These girls cur...

Sometimes, you read a book about women and you can really really tell that it was written by a man. And that was this book. And I'm not talking about the art style here, because it was amazing and I actually really enjoyed it in this book! I'm talking about the dialogue and the actually written part of the book. Just,,, the way these girls talk,,, is so unrealistic and I could not get over that. So I really can't say that I enjoyed these characters a lot. Which is a shame because the premise of

11/12/19:Finally read this!!!!I guess I get why this has crap reviews. It's a little fanfiction-y. But hey, this book gets all the credit for naming Alice Alice Liddell, including Tik-Tok in one of the flashbacks, and making all the wonderful Peter Pan references. (view spoiler)[Also, let me just say: Peter Pan ending up with Tinker Bell? YES. (hide spoiler)]I mean, really, this book isn't just someone who's watched the Wizard of Oz movie and the Disney Alice In Wonderland and Peter Pan, this is...

a graphic novella that is above three stars... finallyMaybe it was that it was in a physical format? Maybe it was that this was a gift to me from my friend?? (thank you to her!!!!! idk if she reads my trashfire reviews or immediately clicks away before grimacing, which I would totally understand) But anyways, this was so FUN to read and also really short, so it could be easily added to my reading challenge. :)I love Sarah Anderson and her Sarah's Scribbles, and it was so interesting to see an al...

Many thanks to Ten Speed Press for sending me a copy in exchange for an honest reviewOh, this was such a mess. I had such high hopes because I love Sarah Anderson's art and I've heard so much praise for Andy Weir. Now, the art was great. Sarah did her best with what she was given but the story. And the characters. Oh dear god. First off, it read like very poorly written fanfiction. It is based on The Wizard of Oz, Peter Pan, and Alice in Wonderland. It felt as though the author was trying to mak...

This work is getting an awful lot of buzz and excitement and accompanying favorable reviews. This tale of Wendy, Dorothy, and Alice after their adventure coping with life now in the early 1900s told in graphic novel format by Andy Weir.Perhaps the same crowd who is excited about this would also be interested in the tale of Wendy, Dorothy, and Alice after their adventure coping with life now in the early 1900s told in graphic novel format by Alan Moore. Written in 1991.

This is just painful. I thought perhaps it would be a decent graphic novel. After all, it's Andy Weir (of The Martian) and Sarah Andersen (of Sarah's Scribbles). Aside from the decent illustrations, though, this is just bad fanfiction.I can't take historical fiction seriously when it's this modern. The story takes place in 1910, so the inclusion of Dorothy, Alice, and Wendy all make sense, as their stories were published before that time. The inclusion of Mary Poppins is questionable (her story

When you get famous enough as a writer, the joke goes, you can even get your grocery list published. Or, in this case, a graphic novel of your online fan fiction. And the publisher will even offer to have a high profile artist like Sarah Andersen of Sarah's Scribbles redraw it for you. Fortunately, this book is quite clever and pleasing in its crossover of Dorothy of Oz, Alice of Wonderland, and Wendy of Neverland.Weir bumps them in age up into their teens, explains their previous adventures as

Has there ever been a book more up my alley? I don’t think so. Fairy tale base, bad ass young women, twists and turns and some favorite big bads.....the only downfall is that I have to wait for a sequel!!

Overall Rating: BA quick, fun graphic novel with kick-ass girls and an ambiguous ending! What more could you want?? *(another one preferably)

Dorothy from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Alice of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, and Peter Pan’s Wendy are now teens and very misunderstood- no one else believed their wild stories, and they were diagnosed as delusional. However, the teachers at the boarding school Cheshire Crossing believe them and know that each one possesses amazing powers. When the girls’ fantasy worlds collide and Captain Hook and the Wicked Witch of the West band together, the three teens must harness their talents to s...

I've never read anything by Andy Weir before, but I'm a huge fan of Andersen's Sarah's Scribbles. I think Sarah did a wonderful job in this one, the art is truly stunning. Unfortunately, I guess it is the only thing good in this graphic novel.I think that story was cliche and poorly written. The dialogue was so cringey at times, and the characters felt like 13 year olds (and they were supposed to be 17). Storyline wasn't that interesting and even the plot twists were really predictable. It's com...

I was not expecting to like this. I love these characters; they are my childhood heroines.However, somewhere along the way, I changed my expectations and I thought of this as expensive/mainstream fanfic, which made it more bearable. There were things I thought were well done (Alice being immune to the poppies in Oz, Dorthy’s silver slippers), and there were things I disliked (what about Wendy’s brothers? Alice’s sister?).Some of the characters were handled well and good moments of humor.

Audiobook!The audiobook is amazing but the story was bad and nothing special didn’t like. If you wanna read this book I highly recommend the audiobook is fantastic.

Vote: 2.9 stars (almost) - plot, setting and writing -The plot is surely unique, but I was kind of expecting more.It’s a quick read and the drawings are amazing. - characters - I’ve found the characters pretty much well built, I liked the twist the author gave do Wendy, but my favorite one was Alice.Worst one probably Peter Pan, too weird for me. - final thoughts -Probably too quick with the development of the story , but still a nice novel. The plot is cool, it could have been better though.•I...
