“She has no choice. Just like I have no choice.”
“We all have choices, even if we do not realize it.“
I don’t even know what to say.
I wanted to love this, I wanted to give this amazing rating, but I couldn’t.
It was bad. Just bad.
Where is my awesome Susan Ee?
I want her back! 😭
2,25⭐️

O.M.G. I thought this was never going to happen 😯😍
Finally a new book by Susan Ee.
I love her books.
But I really don’t like this cover 😕

Definitely a fresh and dark view on the Cinderella. But not for my taste.

I struggled with this so much because I loved Susan’s other series. I had high hopes and this was so far short of what I was used to for her I didn’t feel like I knew any of the characters or the world itself. I totally understand leaving somethings mysterious but the whole book was just not great.

adventurous
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

No me encanto pero tampoco esta mal. Realmente lo mejor fue el final. No es un mal retelling pero creo que pudo ser muchísimo mejor.

The book is an ample sketch done by a capable author. It has potential and appeal, but even so, it does not raise to the expectations that have been given in the few pages from the beginning.

Ok, so I spied Red Riding Hood and a twisted version of Beauty and the Beast that MAY happen! The book is quick to read, full of action and the romance felt a tiny too rushed for me. BUT this has potential!

3.5 stars; i enjoyed that but I'm also really confused? i mean i also just found out this is actually just a retelling but i feel like this could've been a good start to a series or something - the start was slow and the end was pretty rushed but yeah i guess I'm mostly confused? pleasantly????

Interesting twist on this story
With that I LOVE fairytale retellings and as many as I have read/listened to it's virtually impossible for me to like them. As with this, I actually thoroughly enjoyed it. I admit it isn't my favorite retelling but it isn't the worst. It definitely left we wanting more. Like I'd need a part 2 to see what happened to Cinder and Dante when they made it to their new destination. What their children were like. Yes they seemed to like each other but almost as just a parting fancy, not I want to live happily ever after with you and only you. What happened to the Dark King and Gallant and Cinder's step family. Like I want details not the glossed over overview. But all in all, it was good story.
3.8 stars

Eigentlich eine 4,75. Das Ende ist ein bisschen schwach, aber der Rest war so großartig, dass es das Ende wett macht. Sehr düster, genau nach meinem Geschmack. Fühlt sich an wie eine Mischung aus Aschenputtel, the purge und Pakt der Wölfe.
