Off... with... her... head
The second book of the adventures of Alice was definitely less brutal and gorey this time. A bit of a disappointment, but I wasn't triggered by sexual assault like last time so that's definitely a plus point. Though, I was a bit confused why Hatcher and Alice got separated in this story, but in the end (at least for me) it made sense why Perhaps it didn't bother me that, as I wasn't that much of a fan of their romance (but also not a hater!), it's just that I expected more horror stuff to have a greater spotlight. After all, it's a Christian Henry book and when I read one I expect horror! The first book definitely done it better and this one seemed more mid. Of course the story was still interesting and the plot twist was something I didn't expect, so I rate it three stars.
