The Other Alice

Having read the 'A Pinch of Magic' series, I was expecting magic and an absorbing plot but this book really exceeded all my expectations! So brilliantly thought out with literary and bookish references throughout. I demolished this in a couple of sittings!

A fascinating plot full of mystery. I love that this book is written from the point of view of an ordinary brother an not his cursed sister.

Wow. Just wow. I’m a sucker for stories with a witchy, magicky theme and so I adore Michelle Harrison’s Pinch of Magic series and Midnight Magic (waiting impatiently for #2) so couldn’t wait to get stuck into this - The Other Alice. Now I’m done I have no idea why I waited so long. This is the cleverest kids’ book I’ve read in a long time - it has enough plot twists to keep older kids glued to the pages, enough gorgeous characters, magic and mayhem to keep the younger ones amused and enough of a gloriously bookish storyline that adults who love books are bound to love it too. I am particularly fond of Tabitha, the talking cat, obvs 🙄 But also… ‘I will end this tale by saying that stories… have the power to harm… But stories have the power to heal, too.’ Michelle, I simply adore your stories. Few kids’ books immerse me in the way yours do. Please, never stop creating magic and readers along the way ❤️ #kidsbookshelf #kidsbookreviews #kidsbooks #bestkidsbooks #MagicStories

an amazing magical story

I really loved the fact that characters from Alice's book are coming out in the real world.

It's cool because characters from her story come to life and there's a cat with 9 lives.

It's a mystical adventure about unfinished stories

I liked Gypsy beacause even though she could not talk she was super nice. I would reccomend it to some one else

This book was awesome because it was so mysterious and it showed a good reputation of a book.
