Light pick. This retelling of Cinderella combines folk/fairy tales from different cultures, and I enjoyed reading the intro from this 10th anniversary edition to hear the reasons for Lo‘s decisions on the structure of the novel. I didn‘t quite click with the writing style, but the last few chapters flew by for me, so worthy of a pick rating. #SundayBuddyRead #LitsyAToZ #LetterA #52BookClub25 #AFairyTaleRetelling

I've had this book on my TBR for years. Yesterday I happened to be looking for an #audiobook to start when I noticed Cinder just happened to be sitting there waiting for someone to pick it up. So pick it up I did, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. Now on hold with Libby for book two.

5✨ This was not a surprise 5 Star for me because I have read it close to when it was copy written in 2003/2005. I loved it then and I love it now! It also caused me to follow the author ever since. The princess Ani is forced to become Isi and the Goose Girl for the king of her arranged marriages land. All in her company died to save her, but the villain in this story did not anticipate the talents of Ani‘s animal speak, and her determination.

While reading The Tale of The Firebird for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 , I came across the Russian fairytale that one of my favorite books, The Snowchild is based upon!
I love a literary surprise!
