Alice in Zombieland - Gena Showalter

I am going to begin reading this book, Alice in Zombieland, which I got as a gift last year. I believe it is a series of three books, in which I have the first two. I was pretty excited for this book because I love the story of Alice in Wonderland, one of my favourites ever, and I thought this was a modern spin-off which included zombies in Wonderland. However, I have read many reviews and researched this book quite a bit since then and I have found that this has almost nothing to do with Alice in Wonderland itself save a few things here and there that could be connected to the amazing classic.
I am glad I found this out before I started reading, otherwise I may have been super irritated. Even now, it's slightly annoying that a writer would rely so heavily on essentially false advertising. I will still give it a go however, and attempt to separate this entirely from the renowned Alice in Wonderland.
Also, side note - the artwork on the cover of this book is so beautiful. Absolutely lovely. It is very Alice in Wonderland esque again but I really am loving it.

'SHE WON'T REST UNTIL SHE'S SENT EVERY WALKING CORPSE BACK TO ITS GRAVE. 

FOREVER. 

If anyone had told Alice Bell that her entire life would change course between one heartbeat and the next, she would have laughed. From blissful to tragic, innocent to ruined? Please. But that's all it took. One heartbeat. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything she knew and loved was gone. 

Her father was right. The monsters are real. 

To avenge her family, Ali must learn to fight the undead. To survive, she must learn to truth the baddest of bad boys, Cole Holland. But Cole has secrets of his own, and if Ali isn't careful, those secrets might just prove to be more dangerous than the zombies.'
