This was really disappointing. I was excited as a huge fan of both Alice in Wonderland and MM romance, but this book was just not structured very well and the characters are very poorly-written parodies of Alice characters rather than feeling like an extension of the original books. The timeline also doesn't make any sense as this is placed in modern-day England but it's still supposedly the original Alice. The writing style was all over the place - sometimes emulating the original books and sometimes dipping into more contemporary voice that would make sense as the book was placed in modern times, but it was inconsistent and therefore distracting. The writer spends more time on descriptions of original areas of Wonderland (why even make it Wonderland if you're just going to create your own version?) rather than on character development, which was sorely lacking. None of the characters were likeable. Overall this is just a crap book, but I finished it just in case something happened plus it was easy to read - but don't waste your time.
