![]() ![]() We meet our heroine Sophia a few days before this ball. At the ball, a choosing ceremony takes place, where men choose their wives. King Manford is holding a ball to celebrate 200 years since Cinderella met Prince Charming. ![]() However, by including it near the beginning Bayron raises suspision that all may not be what is seems with the story. ![]() This text is very similar to the Cinderella story we all know. Bayron uses excerpts from the palace appoved text. It is now a legal requirement that every girl knows the Cinderella story off by heart (well the palace approved version). I ended up reading it in a day, I simply couldn’t (and didn’t want to) put it down! I’ll never look at classic Cinderella in the same way again.Ĭinderella is Dead is set 200 years after Cinderella finds her prince at the ball in the kingdom of Mersailles. So a book which retold that story drew me in instantly. I grew up obsessed with Disney and Cinderella was one of the first films I watched. I picked up Cinderella is Dead by Kalynn Bayron as a holiday read. ![]()
