Unbirthday: A Twisted Tale

Fun Read! Not your normal everyday read, a bit twisted and that in itself makes this a great book. Gift for my sister and she read it in a day! Only the Greats are in the "Can't Put It Down Category".

It's a darker story of Alice in wonderland where Spoilers . . . Alice is an 18 year old living with her parents. She has a hobby of taking pictures of people around town. She goes to visit her aunt frequently to get her pictures processed. One time she looks at the pictures after they are done and all of them are her old friends from wonderland but in terrible conditions. Basically after she left the queen of hearts went on a bloody rampage killing everyone and a resistance was set up against her with the main person against her being Mary Anne. Mary Anne somehow sent the message to Alice through the photos because of something something vague magic. So all in all it's an amazing story in my opinion but it is very dark especially for kids so I'd recommend being at least a teen before reading this

Great series

Liz Braswell’s Unbirthday is a compelling and imaginative reimagining of Alice in Wonderland—a “what if” tale that asks: What if Alice was older and returned to a Wonderland in crisis? Part of Disney’s Twisted Tales series, this novel blends whimsy, darkness, and social commentary in surprising and meaningful ways. Set years after Alice’s original adventure, the story finds her at 18 years old, navigating the restrictions of Victorian society while haunted by memories (or dreams?) of Wonderland. But when she begins seeing familiar Wonderland characters in her photography—and realizes Wonderland itself is in danger—Alice is pulled back into the chaos, only to find it reflects the injustices of her real world. Braswell cleverly uses Wonderland not just as a setting, but as a metaphor. The absurdity of the Queen’s rule, the silencing of voices, and the distortion of truth mirror Alice’s growing awareness of the flaws in her own society. Through this, the book tackles themes of censorship, power, identity, and courage

About half of the book seemed bent on being as dark as possible, being sure to make it seem as though Wonderland's whole purpose was to just make you question, it didn't matter the question, nor certainly the answer, it just needed to question. Then it made a spectacular comeback, showing how all the answers really were the most important, not that we necessarily need all the answers, we just have to diligently seek for them. Overall I declare it to be a good book in this series.

Very good new condition, spine and pages in new condition

Haven’t read it yet but I know it’s going to be another good one to read! Since I’ve read the other books that i purchased on Amazon

I was hesitant to read "fanfic" for one of my all time favorite stories, but I love Alice in Wonderland. The books, the movies, just the idea of falling away into a fantasy world with magical creatures. I haven't read any of the other Twisted Tales so I went in not sure what to expect and scared of being let down. I was instantly impressed with the writing style that felt true and accurate to the original, it didn't feel modernized, it could've been written in Victorian times. It felt natural to read and I was immersed in Wonderland all over again.

Livre magnifique Mais très mécontente, il est arrivé abîmé et taché.

Todas las páginas del libro tienen la parte superior e inferior ennegrecidas, de la tinta de imprenta. La calidad de impresión es pésima. Lo mismo sucede con otros dos libros que pedí juntos de la misma colección de A Twisted Tale: Mirror, Mirror y So This is Love.

Pensé que era de plata blanda pero es el de pasta dura. Se ve muy elegante y tiene el mismo efecto que los demás. Lo compre en inglés para mejorar mi reading y es 👌🏼

Daughter loves these books, what she was most impressed about was the quality of this hard cover book and how pretty it is. She loves the story. If you like the "Disney" stories with a twist, these books are a great read.

Wonderfully written, another must have book if you are a fan of the “twisted tales” series.
