I've been wanting to read this since I was in fifth grade, and I'm so glad I finally got to it 😠What a fun, enjoyable story! Neither Ella nor Char are explicitly stated as trans, but ohhhhh my god they give off the most transgender energy, and I'm totally here for it.

I read this book twice in my life, once as a fourth grader and once 10 years later. It holds up as a fun, light novel that I believe all ages can enjoy. Other than some body shaming (which seems common to many retellings of Cinderella) it holds up surprisingly well in the modern age.
