Goodreads Summary
Long before she was the terror of Wonderland — the infamous Queen of Hearts — she was just a girl who wanted to fall in love.
Catherine may be one of the most desired girls in Wonderland, and a favorite of the yet-unmarried King of Hearts, but her interests lie elsewhere. A talented baker, all she wants is to open a shop with her best friend and supply the Kingdom of Hearts with delectable pastries and confections. But according to her mother, such a goal is unthinkable for the young woman who could be the next Queen.
At a royal ball where Cath is expected to receive the king’s marriage proposal, she meets Jest, the handsome and mysterious court joker. For the first time, she feels the pull of true attraction. At the risk of offending the King and infuriating her parents, she and Jest enter into an intense, secret courtship.
Cath is determined to define her own destiny and fall in love on her terms. But in a land thriving with magic, madness, and monsters, fate has other plans.
Why I’m Waiting
Besides the fact that this book sounds amazing, I am also a huge fan of Marissa Meyer’s previous series ‘The Lunar Chronicles’so I can only begin to imagine how much I’m going to enjoy this book.
I honestly can not wait for it to be released!!
What books are you waiting for? Let me know below.
Ahhh I’ve read this book and it’s actually pretty good! It was my first Marissa Meyer and I gotta say, it’s better than I expected. There were some flaws, but it felt very Alice in Wonderland-y and that was awesome. Hope you like it too when you get the chance to read it. 😉

I’ve thought about it, but the misrepresentation of Asian culture really bugs me, so I don’t think I will! She’s not a bad writer, though. 🙂

Neither can I, I’ve felt slightly lost since finishing The Lunar Chronicles. The wait has been the longest ever, I might shed a tear when I have it!
