I was glad reading about the odd sisters again after Evil thing but I do feel a bit confused rather then enlightened. I also have a feeling Serena goes darker and darker with her books atm.

Not really, but it definitely makes me view all the characters, especially Lady Tremaine and Cinderella, in a different light.
The novel starts off before Lady Tremaine marries Cinderella’s father. She is a widowed mom raising her children alone (well, in a house full of servants). She meets a man at a grand party, moves to the Many Kingdoms, and if you’ve read any of Valentino’s novels before, you know exactly where this is headed.
The writing style of this series is...interesting. The tone, the vocabulary, and some of the names used makes the books feel like they are for older children, but the subject matter seems to be for teens. However, I will definitely keep reading these because even though some villains are evil just because they are, I like pretending that maybe something caused them to be that way.
I am currently working through a backlog of NetGalley reviews. I am so sorry I am so behind, but I was super overwhelmed for awhile, so I took a break. My apologies to NetGalley and various publishers.
Thank you to NetGalley and Disney Hyperion for an e-ARC of this book.
