Review based on what I remember when I read this in 2022.

That was a little short story collection after the main storyline. I thought this was cute, I loved seeing a bit of everyone's point of view after everything that happened in the last three books. I loved Alyssa's short story about her wedding and how she lived out the rest of her life, a very satisfying ending to the whole story you don't usually in a series.  I'm not entirely fond of the choice made to make Alyssa 16 when she returned to Wonderland and keep her that age even when she was going to have a baby. Even if she was mentally mature, it's a little weird having her physically underaged. Other than that, I did love exploring both romances between Alyssa and Jeb and then later with Morpheus, giving us the best of both worlds instead of choosing one or the other. I think that this in particular could have been a neater plot but it works well for the short stories.
