I haven't read a lot about "Alice in Wonderland" but I have watched the Disney version and the live action version and the made-for -television version but I have to say that I wasn't the biggest fan of "Heartless". 
 Cath is an eligible bachelorette who catches the eye of the King however the day that they are going to announce the engagement and Cath is going to have a proposal, a court joker appears who steals Cath's heart. 
 So there's a lot of elements that make for a great story I just didn't like this one. I actually didn't find Cath that relateable so she wants to open a bakery and falls for someone she shouldn't. I wasn't rooting for Cath and I wasn't rooting for Jest either. Meyer made a pretty interesting storyline for Jest but I think maybe we should have followed him for a while that way we could really see why these two characters fell in love. 
 I have to say that I really did like the part where Cath mumbles "off with their heads" totally Queen of Hearts quote there. I kind of wish this book had maybe spent more time on the whole Peter Peter and his wife storyline or maybe more of the King courtship or I wish Cath had just told off the King. 
 Not my favorite book but I think fans of Alice in Wonderland will like it.
