Ashes to Ashes and Cinder to Cinder by Cameron Jace
3.0
A retelling of Cinderella, or at least her history. This story sounded much like Inception because of the whole Dreamland theme going on. Alice, a descendant of the Brothers Grumm, is summoned to Italy to check out the found burnt remains of a woman suspected of being a witch and find the real Cinderella. A guy, Loki Blackstar, is a Dreamhunter who helps her go into the corpse's dream and complete the mission.
The humor in this book was okay. I found myself rolling my eyes at Loki's jokes, though. The story was interesting and well-researched (glassblowers, Murano, etc.) that it goes well with how Cinderella could have come to be.
