I also hated how one sister turned “good” at the end. It didn’t make any sense to me. I will check Cinder & Ella out, thanks Veronika!paperbackprincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07446601964387517150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717251772632628978.post-35497809197715025802017-11-12T14:59:24.588-05:002017-11-12T14:59:24.588-05:00Haha, I really loved this one.

That said, I expected all that from a Cinderella retelling. One HUGE complaint I had was how one of the sisters was redeemed, whilst the other stayed horrible "just because", at least if I remember correctly. AND I love Cinder & Ella, it is, in my opinion, a much stronger book than this, and couldn't help seeing that this one had quite a few... similar elements as that one. Anyhow, sad you didn't like it. :( Still lovely review!<br /><br />Veronika @ <a href="http://reading-is-dreaming-with-open-eyes.blogspot.hu/" rel="nofollow">The Regal Critiques</a>Veronika @ Wordy and Whimsicalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06813427718618609226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717251772632628978.post-34535701432098455122017-11-11T13:55:10.716-05:002017-11-11T13:55:10.716-05:00Omg I remember you writing that story!
