Review

I'm surprised on how much I enjoyed this book. Yes I'm originally a fan of the Cinderella story, but what shocked me was how much I enjoyed a book written from the movie Cinderella.

If all that doesn't make sense I'll try to explain it a bit better. Usually when someone writes a book based on a movie, TV series or even a game, for some odd reason they always sound too corny. It's poorly written that I think their main goal is to get people to either watch the movie or TV series or play the game, instead of reading.

So when I started reading this book, I was pleasantly surprised on how good it was written. It wasn't cheesy, but funny and beautiful.

If you have seen the movie, read this book. Bonus, there are also clips from the movie inside the book. Especially (like me) you are obsessed with Richard Madden :)
