À propos de cet audio

Cinderella retold

In the wake of her father’s death, Ash is left at the mercy of her cruel stepmother.

Consumed with grief, she finds her only joy by the light of the dying hearth fire, re-reading the fairy tales her mother once told her. In her dreams, someday the fairies will steal her away, as they are said to do.

When she meets the dark and dangerous fairy Sidhean, she begins to believe that her wish may be granted.

But the day that Ash meets Kaisa, the King’s royal Huntress, her heart begins to change. Instead of chasing fairies, Ash learns to hunt with Kaisa. Though their friendship is as delicate as a new bloom, it reawakens Ash’s capacity for love — and her desire to live. But Sidhean has already claimed Ash for his own, and she must make a choice between fairy tale dreams and true love.

Entrancing and romantic, Ash is an empowering retelling of Cinderella about the connection between life and love, and solitude and death, where transformation can come from even the deepest grief.

I mean this in the best way, the book was good, but it wasn't... great.
There was a lot of potential to expand on certain elements and themes, and parts of the original Cinderlla story.
Non-Spoiler: If you want a good book with mild sapphic themes and some fairytale clichés, this does a good job.

Spoiler: As I mentioned the book missed some of the main elements and themes of the original Cinderella, it felt like there could have been more depth. It also felt a little repetitive in spots, "Don't go into the forest or seek fairy things" does it several times. Missed opportunity to show the evil stepmother up, to get her father's name cleared. They even set it up to make a minor clash between the huntress and the prince, as he could have called her to be his bride once discovering who she was. This didn't exactly give a lot of fairytale vibes in itself, and I mean that as in, a short telling of this story wouldn't feel like a fairytale. I hope that makes sense.
Anyways! All in all, although I felt certain elements lacking, and some of the characters bland, it was good. It wasn't a painful read, it made me smile or chuckle to myself. It just could have been so much more.
You decide, could it have been more or was it a great version all on its own!?

Good but not great
