Book Review: Alice 19th by Yu Watase

Alice 19th; 1

Alice Seno is a really shy and mysterious girl who always seems to be outshined by her older sister, Mayura. One day, Alice has an encouter with a mysterious and magic rabbit girl and her life is turned inside out and upside down. Alice discovers that words have power and that she has the potential to be master of a set of very powerful words called the Lotis words. But power always comes with a price, and that price might be someone she really cares about, as well as her sister Mayura. What will become of her if Alice uses her new powers wrong?

The best thing about this book is that it's very out there and manga never ceases to amaze me at its imagination.

I don't like how sometimes it doesn't make sense because you've read the wrong section.

Rating: 5/5

Review by Kaitlin Larney

******************************************************************************

This book is about a girl called Alice who is a having a few family problems. Her sister hates her because they are in love with the same guy, and then she disappears. Her family blames her, some weird guy shows up and wants to marry her, and worst of all, a talking rabbit wants her to defeat some dark spirits. But can Alice do this by herself? Well, she wouldn't want to bring her love - Kyo - with her, or would she? Her sister got up the courage to tell Kyo that she loves him, but does Alice even have the time to tell him? Alice must find her sister before the dark completely consumes her, and try to convince her sister that it's ok to at least give Alice a chance. But can she do all that?

The best thing in Alice 19th is that it's not real but most of the problems people can relate to and know how she feels.

I don't like the way it all ends on a sad note - and that they haven't made an anime of it yet!

People who like a good teen romance will just love this.

I absolutely love, love, love this book!

Rating: 5/5
