Sinopse:

After ten years of being told she can't tell the difference between real life and a fairy tale, Alice finally stops believing in Wonderland. So when the White Rabbit shows up at her house, Alice thinks she's going crazy.

Only when the White Rabbit kicks her down the rabbit hole does Alice realize that the magical land she visited as a child is real.

But all is not well in Wonderland.

The Ace of Spades has taken over Wonderland and is systematically dismantling all that makes it wonderful. Plain is replacing wondrous, logical is replacing magical, and reason is destroying madness. Alice decides she must help the Mad Hatter and all those fighting to keep Wonderland wonderful.

But how can she face such danger when she is just a girl?

Alice must journey across the stars to unite an army. She discovers that fairy tales are real in the magical world beyond the rabbit hole. But they are not the fairy tales she knows.

Fairy tales have dangers and adventures of their own, and Alice must overcome the trials of these old stories if she wants to unite the lands against Ace.

With the help of Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Snow White and heroes old and new, Alice may have the strength to take back Wonderland.

Opinião:
Antes de mais nada quero agradecer à Curiosity Quills por me ter cedido Alice Takes Back Wonderland para leitura. Qualquer coisa relacionada com Wonderland e eu estou pronta para agarrar com unhas e dentes.

Muito sinceramente não sei o que estava à espera deste livro. O início foi algo enfadonho e, confesso, continuei a ler porque era um eARC do qual teria que escrever uma crítica. Mas ainda bem que o fiz porque melhora substancialmente. Não fazia ideia que Alice Takes Bacl Wonderland seria uma mistura de tantos contos de fadas (só para referir alguns: Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Branca de Neve… entre muitos outros, mas também mitologias como a Grega e Viking.) e acho que essa foi uma das partes que mais gostei do livro. Há crossovers entre os vários contos, havendo mesmo sobreposição de personagens – que não vou revelar para não deixar passar nenhum spoiler.

Apesar de o livro melhorar mais ou menos a meio, o livro soube-me a pouco. Não senti aquele nonsense e maravilhoso de Wonderland. Fiquei um tanto ao quanto desiludida, ainda que tenha sido uma leitura minimamente decente, pois não tiro o mérito ao autor, uma vez que é, de facto, um livro bem escrito. Só que para mim falta qualquer coisa que para um livro relacionado com Wonderland tem que ser.

Review:
First of all, I want to thank to Curiosity Quills for sending me Alice Takes Back Wonderland so I could read it. I’m always ready to read anything related to Wonderland.

To be honest, I don’t know what I was expecting from this book. The beginning was boring, and I must confess, I only continued with my reading because it was an eARC sent to me so I could review it. But I’m glad I did it, because it got a lot better. I didn’t know Alice Takes Back Wonderland was suppose to mix so many different fairy tales (just to name a few: Peter Pan, Pinocchio, Snow White… and so many others, but also mythologies as Greek and Viking), and I think it was the best part of the book, in my opinion. There are crossovers between fairy tales, and some characters even overlap – I will not reveal any of them, so I avoid spill spoilers.

Although this book gets better halfway through it, it's a bit unsatisfactory. I didn’t feel the nonsense and wonder usually associated to Wonderland. I felt disappointed, even though it was a half decent reading. It was actually well written, the author did a good job. But for me, there is missing something really important for a book related to Wonderland.

Sinopse:

NOTORIOUS NOBLEMAN SEEKS REVENGE
Name and title: Adam Penrose, Duke of Stratton.
Affiliation: London’s elite Society of Decadent Dukes.
Family history: Scandalous.
Personality traits: Dark and brooding, with a thirst for revenge.
Ideal romantic partner: A woman of means, with beauty and brains, willing to live with reckless abandon.
Desire: Clara Cheswick, gorgeous daughter of his family’s sworn enemy.

FAINT OF HEART NEED NOT APPLY
Clara may be the woman Adam wants, but there’s one problem: she’s far more interested in publishing her women’s journal than getting married—especially to a man said to be dead-set on vengeance. Though, with her nose for a story, Clara wonders if his desire for justice is sincere—along with his incredibly unnerving intention to be her husband. If her weak-kneed response to his kiss is any indication, falling for Adam clearly comes with a cost. But who knew courting danger could be such exhilarating fun?

Opinião:
Até ao momento acho que li o meu livro favorito da Madeline Hunter. Apesar de gostar dos livros desta autora, por norma acabo por achar que ficam um pouco aquém das expectativas. The Most Dangerous Duke in London não se enquadra nesta categoria. Gostei bastante de ler este livro e não o consegui pousar.

Tem uma base de história de vingança e eu admito que estas não são as minhas favoritas mas neste livro foi tão bem conseguida que o interessa não é tanto a vingança mas o crescer da relação entre Adam e Clare.

Clare é uma mulher forte e independente, que sabe bem o que quer e é bastante inteligente. Adam é um duque que, quando se vê confrontado com uma escolha, vê Clare e, sendo ela filha de um homem que teria tido influência no ato que leva Adam a procurar vingança (ou devo dizer…procurar a verdade e razões para o que aconteceu na vida da sua família), estava no sítio certo à hora certa.

A família de Clare quer que a sua irmã seja quase usado como sacríficio para aplacar a suposta raiva de Adam, mas quando ele vê Clare ao longe na colina, nem pensa duas vezes na irmã mais nova de Clare.

Clare e Adam têm uma atracção importante mas mais do que isso, o que interessa é a relação de amizade e companheirismo que começa entre eles.

Com uma história que inclui mistério e traição, ligações à guerra com França e um romance que nos prende do início ao fim, este tornou-se o meu livro favorito da Madeline Hunter.

Review:
I think I’ve found my favourite Madeline Hunter’s book so far. Although I always appreciate and like her books, they sometimes seem to be a bit below my expectations – but not this one. The Most Dangerous Duke in London doesn’t fit that category. I really enjoyed it and couldn’t put it down.

The base of the plot is related to revenge, and these are usually my favourite plots, but in this case, the story was so well put together that what mattered wasn’t so much the revenge plan but the growth of the relationship between Adam and Clare.

Clare is a strong, independent woman, who knows what she wants and is very smart and intelligent. Adam is a duke that finds himself confronted with a choice and at that moment he sees Clare, in her horse, at the top of a hill – and, being she the daughter of a deceased man who might have had something to do with Adam’s family tragedy, he cannot put her aside and let her go – she was at the right place, on the right time.

Clare’s family wants to use her younger sister almost like a sacrifice to placate Adam’s supposed anger and rage, but when he sees Clare, he doesn’t even think twice about her little sister.

Clare and Adam have an important attraction, but more than that, what matters is how their relationship grows with friendship and companionship.

With a plot that has mystery, betrayal, connections to France and the war, as well as a romance that keep you holding on to the book, this has become my favourite book by Madeline Hunter.

[A Duquesa Acidental] Qual a mais deliciosa?

 Ler em Português      Read in English

Capa mais deliciosa: A capa orginal (a da esquerda)

Porquê?
Carla: Apesar de não ser fã de nenhuma das capas, acho a original (a da esquerda) bem mais apelativa e agradável que a capa nacional.

Joana: Gosto bastande das duas capas. A original tem tons verdes e fluídos de que gosto e a portuguesa vai por tons mais cor-de-rosa e tem uma leitora na capa, o que é um ponto a favor! Mantendo-se no mesmo género das outras capas, a portuguesa pode não dar logo a entender que é um romance histórico (excepto pelo título), enquanto que a original é facilmente reconhecível como romance de época. No fim, acabo divida entre as duas capas...

E vocês, qual a vossa favorita?

The most delicious cover: The original cover (the one on the left)

Why?
Carla: I'm not fan of either cover, but I think the original cover (the one on the left) is more appealing and pleasing to the eye than the Portuguese cover.

Joana: I really like both covers… The original has fluid green tones that I like and the Portuguese cover has more a pink shade and, of course, a reader on the cover which is a point for them! The Portuguese cover maintains the same type of cover has the other ones in this series, and you might not be able to tell right away that it’s an historical romance (except for the title), whereas the original cover is easily recognizable as a historical romance. In the end, I’m torn between both covers....

And you, which one do you like the most?

Hoje venho vos apresentar mais uma loja etsy, desta vez Nerdy Grl Designs. Há já algum tempo que conheço esta loja pelo Instagram. Tem coisas adoráveis e sempre tive grande vontade de adquirir alguns produtos. Aproveitando o fim de semana de St. Patrick e um desconto disponível na altura, decidi avançar com a compra.

(Fotografia de @theamazingwonderlust)

Segundo o que sei todas as encomendas têm direito a um freebie, como fiz a encomenda durante o St. Patrick’s Day, tive direito a um pequeno pote de ouro. O que eu encomendei? Três sets de marcadores magnéticos: um da Princess Sparckles Unicorn, outro de Doctor Who e, um terceiro, da Sailor Moon (há uma falha imensa porque não haver um set com as restantes Sailors). À parte destes sets, encomendei dois marcadores, ditos normais, de Doctor Who (duuuuh, obvs!) e outro do Suicide Squad, com uma quote da Harley Quinn.

Todos os marcadores têm uma qualidade incrível e são lindos, no entanto achei o shipping um pouco tempo, em comparação com outras lojas do género. Ainda assim, gostei muito de tudo o que comprei e muito possivelmente irei voltar a comprar mais desta loja.

I’m here today to show you another Etsy store; this time is Nerdy Grl Designs. I’ve been checking out this store for a while, since I discovered it on Instagram. It has such adorable things, and I always wanted some. I took advantage of St. Patrick’s Day and used the discount to make my first order.

According to what I know, all orders has a freebie, and since I made my order on St. Patrick’s weekend I got a pot of gold. And what I ordered? Three magnetic bookmarks sets: Princess Sparkles Unicorn, Doctor Who and, and Sailor Moon (which is a pity there isn’t a set with the other Sailors!). On top of that I also ordered two “normal” bookmarks: one Doctor Who themed (duuuh, obvs!) and another from Suicide Squad with a quote from Harley Quinn.

All bookmarks have such good quality and they are all beautiful, although I think the shipping took a bit too long, comparing to other similar Etsy stores. Nevertheless, I loved evbeything I got, and I will definitely going back a buy more stuff in the future.

[Livro] Lord of Pleasure, de Erica Ridley

Série: Rogues to Riches #2

Sinopse:

In the Rogues to Riches historical romance series, Cinderella stories aren’t just for princesses… Sigh-worthy Regency rogues sweep strong-willed young ladies into whirlwind romance with rollicking adventure.
Nondescript “good girl” Miss Camellia Grenville only ever opens her mouth when forced to sing at her family’s musicales. That is, until the night she infiltrates the ton’s most scandalous masquerade ball on behalf of her sister, and finds herself in the arms—and the bed—of the one man she’d sworn to hate.
Irresistibly arrogant and unapologetically sensuous, infamous rake Lord Wainwright always gets his way. When he accepts a wager to turn his rakish image respectable in just forty days, he never anticipates falling for an anonymous masked lover...or that discovering her identity would destroy them both.

~ Recebemos este livro directamente da autora Erica Ridley, em troca desta opinião honesta. Obrigada! ~

Opinião:
Lord of Pleasure foi muito melhor que Lord of Chance.

Desde logo senti uma empatia muito maior com as personagens, tanto com Camellia como com Michael.

Camellia é uma irmã protectora e amiga que sente que tem de compensar o comportamento das irmãs, sendo por isso “ a boazinha”. Já Michael é visto como um playboy que basta entrar numa sala para as senhoras desmaiarem – o que ele não gosta particularmente. A maneira como as pessoas o vêem faz com que as suas palavras sejam distorcidas e isso é o que ele mais odeia.

Cada um deles sentia-se preso a um papel e é interessante ver como máscaras físicas permitem que as máscaras emocionais que usam no dia-a-dia possam cair. Gostei da evolução da relação deles, apesar de achar que, se calhar, não iria durar pois eles conhecem-se só como aquelas pessoas que estão atrás das máscaras, praticamente e, na realidade, eles são como que uma união do que mostram ao mundo e do que mostram um ao outro.

Apesar disso, foi uma leitura super rápida e de que gostei bastante, sempre curiosa para saber mais sobre as personagens. Achei que o “entrave/problema” não existia na realidade e poderia ter sido usado algo melhor, mas para o enredo que se desenrolou, algo simples chegou.

Foi um livro que foi difícil de pousar e que me deu bastante prazer a ler mas que, ao escrever esta opinião, percebi que tinha pequenos problemas, daí a pontuação não ser tão alto como as 4 bolachas inicialmente pensadas.

Review:
Lord of Pleasure was much better than Lord of Chance.

From the start, I felt a much bigger empathy with the characters, both Camellia and Michael.

Camellia is a friendly and protective sister and she feels like she has to compensate her family for her sisters’ behaviour – making her the “good girl”. Michael on the other hand, is seen as a rake/rogue/playboy, someone that walks into a room and makes all the ladies swoon – which he doesn’t particularly appreciates. Why? Because how people see him makes them change and twist his words, and he hates that.

Each of them felt stuck to a roll and it’s interesting to see how real masks allow for emotional and fake personality masks to fall and disappear. I liked the evolution of their relationship but, to be honest, I don’t know if it would last long, because they only know each other like the person behind the masks and, in truth, they are a bit of both – the ones behind the mask and that they show each other, and the ones they show the world.

Still, it was a fun and fast paced read that I quite enjoyed. I was always eager to know more about the characters. In truth, I think the “problem” didn’t really exist and something better could have been used to twist the story a bit but, for the kind of plot, this simple ruse and scheme worked fine.

It was a book that was hard to put down and gave me quite a lot pleasure to read, but, as I started to write this review, I concentrated a bit more on the problems that I was seeing, and that’s why the rating isn’t as high as I thought it would be (4*).

Where the "Beast" manga explores Beast's deepest thoughts as he captures Belle in his castle and finds himself falling in love with her feisty attitude and adventurous spirit.

~ Recebemos este eARC através do NetGalley. Obrigada! ~

Opinião:
Beast's Tale é o volume que se segue a Belle's Tale, que já escrevi uma review e podem ler aqui. Neste segundo volume temos a estória d'A Bela e do Monstro contacta pela perspectiva do Monstro e, sem qualquer sombra de dúvida, foi muito mais interessante de ler. Como já referi na minha crítica ao Belle's Tale, a estória d'A Bela e o Monstro não é a minha favorita, mas está no TOP de favoritas, daí a minha curiosidade por estes mangas (e também pelo filme que ainda não tive oportunidade de ver).

Tal como disse anteriormente, neste volume temos a perspectiva do Monstro, não só vemos os mesmos acontecimentos pelos olhos desta personagem, como temos o seu background e o que aconteceu para que a maldição fosse lançada. Achei este volume mais interessante, pois consegui, muito mais facilmente, criar ligação com o Monstro, coisa que não aconteceu no primeiro volume com a Belle com muita pena minha.

Foi uma excelente leitura, e que veio complementar da melhor forma (sendo que até supera) o volume anterior. Não falei da arte até este momento, pois está mantém-se fiel ao estilo manga e ao mesmo nível que o volume anterior. Beast's Tale foi uma boa leitura, melhor que o volume anterior, e eu recomendo para quem gosta do género e d'A Bela e o Monstro.

Review:
Beast’s Tale comes after Belle’s Tale, which I already reviewed here. In this second volume we have the Beast’s point of view of Beauty and the Beast, which was, without a doubt, way more interesting than the first volume. As I already wrote in my Belle’s Tale’s review, Beauty and the Beast is not my favourite Disney fairy tale, but I really like it and it’s in my TOP favourites, hence my curiosity for these mangas (and also the movie,which I haven't had the opportunity to watch yet).

As I already said, in this volume we have the Beast’s point of view; we see the same events from the first volume through this character’s eyes, but also what happened before. I think this volume is way more interesting than the first volume, since I connected more easily with the Beast than I ever felt wit Belle – which is a shame for me.

It was an excellent reading, and it complemented in a really good way (and it’s actually better) the first volume. I didn’t write about the art, because it’s faithful to its style from the previous volume. Beast’s Tale was a good reading, way better than the first volume, and I really recommend it for those who like Beauty and the Beast.
