review 1: This book had the potential to be really good, but overall I was disappointed. I just couldn't get into it until maybe about 1/3 of the way through. Though the plot got more interesting at that point, the writing is just so bad throughout that it was almost unbearable. The grammar is atrocious - it's clearly an e-book that wasn't proofread at all. There are so many glaring mistakes, and a lot of the phrasing is really awkward.The story is cute, a sort of "what-if" version of a fairy tale. The premise is funny: what if the slipper had actually fit someone else? You know, because Cinderella isn't the only person in the entire kingdom with that size foot. And in this version, it's one of the stepsisters that fits into the slipper. Throughout the story Cinderella start... mores to befriend her stepsisters, while simultaneously wondering what to do about the situation she finds herself in regarding her love, the Prince (who doesn't recognize her at all throughout the story. I guess clothes really do make the woman!)The ending was also a big let down. There was some exciting action that never got fully resolved or explained. It was kind of just brushed to the side. Overall I can't really recommend this book, although the story is intriguing it just doesn't quite work.
review 2: I loved that this book wasn't the typical Cinderella story. The twist of Cinderella's shoe fitting one of her stepsisters proves to be very entertaining. Plotting mothers, one doing it for the right reasons and one doing it for all the wrong reasons. Cinderella and her stepsisters learn how to be real sisters with their adventure in Prince Charming's castle. Though Prince charming is quite clueless in the beginning he starts using his noggin. Throw in a not quite adept fairy godmother into the mix you get a story you can't put down until you finish it. less

What if Cinderella's glass slipper fit on somebody else's foot? Pretty cute story.
