![]() ![]() You don’t want the ending to go on forever, but after the ball, it felt like someone hit fast forward. It was a nice pace, not too slow and too fast, until the ending – I wish that had been dragged out a bit more. ![]() Beautiful, but not weighed down by figurative language and such. □Īs usual, I really enjoyed Shea’s writing style. His introduction into the storyline was a bit creepy and I was like, “who is this weirdo?” But he ended up being really sweet and I kinda fell in love with him too…. Maybe it doesn’t bug other people, but I didn’t care for it. But it felt kind of lame, like why Cinderella? Even Ella would have been better. ![]() However, one thing I didn’t care much for was her name… Yes, I know, it’s a Cinderella story, it’s not a terrible name, etc. Sometimes I feel like characters are too perfect like they don’t have any flaws, but Cinderella didn’t make me feel like this at all. It was so touching how much she cared about her servants. ![]() Cinderella was a strong, independent, honorable, and brave character. Since I loved Shea’s other books, I decided to give Cinderella and the Colonel a try. I had an hour-long car ride ahead of me and was looking for a book to read. I was totally and absolutely captivated by this Cinderella retelling. “A gentle word, a smile, an act of compassion, these are the things that can turn hate to love,” ![]()
