I have owned this book for so long and never read it. I don't know what was stopping me, but I decided this month was the time! I really enjoyed this Cinderella retelling! I loved the different elements of fairy that were brought into it and Sapphic Cinderella? Yes, yes please. Even though this was a retelling, it wasn't predictable. I loved the ending and how everything turned out. I loved what Ash learned from her mother and I adore the Huntress!
