This is the first book I mostly read in 2025! It‘s an adorable middle grade fantasy retelling of Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast. I‘d highly recommend it for anyone who likes fairy tale retellings and tales of girls taking control of their own stories.

Ella, living in her stepmother‘s cellar, & Belle, searching for a way to save her father find themselves magically swapped into each other‘s stories.

This was really adorable! The bones of each fairy tale were there, but they way they got reinterpreted was so interesting! & the final twist was really well done! None of these characters acted as young as they were supposed to be, but otherwise this was a lovely middle grade retelling! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
