CINDERELLA IS DEAD
I absolutely adore fairy tale retellings, so I was excited to dive into CINDERELLA IS DEAD by Kalynn Bayron. Several generations after the events of Cinderella, teenage girls are now required by law to attend grand balls at the palace where wealthy older men claim them as brides. The novel’s main character Sophia, a 16-year-old in love with her best friend Erin, suspects there’s more to the Cinderella myth than the propaganda King and his government have been pushing—and of course she’s right. I loved the magical elements, the mystery, and the romance. CINDERELLA IS DEAD is a quick, super engaging read, and also, its cover art is stunning.
