I love retellings its one of my favourite genre of books to read. I say this is a retelling but its more of a spin off and focuses on one of the step sisters who just wants her mums approval. Because she wants her mums approval when the prince comes around looking for the owner of the slipper she cuts her foot up in attempt to make her foot fit that glass slipper. Because we are in the point of view of Isabelle the sister it really makes you feel how they must be feeling and how much abuse they get from their mum. I mean no mum should call their own child ugly. I do like that we get an insight of the 'evil' stepmother and why she does what she did and it is understandable but still not nice.
I like the original characters we got in this book like chance and fate and how they guided our main character. I felt it gave the books more character and extra depth!
One of my favourite things about this book was the quest and adventure that the main character had to complete. it really drew me in and i was there in my head as i read it on this quest with her trying to solve it with her.
I gave this book 4 stars.
