Welcome to Litsy!

3✨ I haven‘t been a fan of this authors writing style, but this one I enjoyed a lot more than others I have read. I continue reading because the retellings he creates stick to the fairy tale in a way that only he can imagine. I really enjoyed hearing Iris‘ story as she discovered a different life, and Clara who showed the curses of being beautiful. #DogsofLitsy -Tess

I really liked Sophia who was delightfully strong and determined. Romance wasn't really well developed but it was okay - could have been without it too. I also really liked some minor characters and some banter made me even laugh.

This was easy to read, even though the story was pretty dark. Things went forward in even pace and reading was enjoyable.

Hoping to find another one in this book too. 🤩 @AsYouWish

With this book I met my reading goal of 2025! Woo hoo!

In other news, I‘ve started a fun YA series that is a great premise and does a wonderful job of pulling from elements of the original fairy tale without just being a retelling. Can‘t wait for the next one.

Book was gifted to me forever ago by @CBee (sorry just getting around to this)

It was the event of the season—a royal ball in King George‘s palace that every eligible maiden had been invited to attend.
And Cinderella couldn‘t believe she was going.
One dance, she promised herself, watching the palace draw near from within her carriage.

without the perks — where the hell
