Middle Grade

This is a Middle Grade Fantasy, and this is the second book in the Sisters Ever After series. I do think this book can be read as a standalone, and I have read and reviewed the first book in this series. This book is a very unique retelling of Cinderella. I had a hard time getting into this book, but once I was into the storyline I could not put it down. I loved the different take on the classic Cinderella story that this author did. I think this book is easy to read and understand what is going on, but I also think adults would enjoy this book if you like light fantasy not high fantasy books. The characters where really fun to follow. You get the story through Tirza point of view, so you are guessing if the other characters are what they want you to think they are which brings a level of suspense to the story. I really enjoyed the suspense that was going on in the story, and I always love guessing who is really good and who is really not so good. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
