Cinderella Is Dead by Kalynn Bayron
5.0

I received an early copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Cinderella is dead is the reimagining we need, especially in times like these, This book takes the story you think you know (both the original fairy tale and the Disney version) and tells us everything we know is wrong.

Sophia lives in a terrible and misogynistic kingdom in which every year, girls must go to a ball to be claimed by their suitors. She is having none of it and would much prefer to run away with the girl she has been in love with her whole life. Well, things go sideways and our story unfolds. Full of beautiful imagery, great action, and an overall amazing story, this one get 4.5 stars out of me.

Sophia is so strongwilled and firm in her beliefs. WIll she overtake the kingdom and get to be with who she loves? You'll have to read it to find out. Trust me, it's worth it!
