Isabelle is Cinderella's ugly stepsister, the one we heard of as a mean one. Jennifer Donnelly created a magical book about the story that defines her character, making the reader not only bond with her, but reviewing herself on her. A real story told in the shape of a fairytale, living up to its motto. A heartwarming life lesson to remind grown ups 'beauty isn't always pretty' and that if willing to take on Chance one can change Fate.
My expectations were high with this one and it still managed to surprise me. Easy reading that will throw you back to childhood, with an elegant touch of the modern times and a powerful message. An absolute delight from the very first page. It's so visual you can already imagine an upcoming Disney movie while reading it!
