Stepsister by Jennifer Donnelly
5.0
4.5 rating rounded up to 5. This is a smart story with a lot of quotable quotes! It’s about feminism and change, and how every single one of us defines our own fate. I loved the writing, the characters and the storyline.
This is very cheesy. It has a blurb in the beginning talking about how “dark” the story is. Haha. It’s not. It’s pretty fluffy. The narrator breaks out of telling the story to talk to the reader. The style is very much fairytale storytelling, making sure to involve the listener, if that makes sense. I don’t love that style of storytelling, but this book does a good job of doing it.
I wish Chance was in it more! I want a book all about Chance and his entourage and I want a love story too! Can Chance find love?? With Opportunity or Love?? He’s the best part of this book! I haven’t had a big book crush in a while!
This book is FUNNY. It made me chuckle out loud several times! It stays true to who Cinderella was, which I love, because Cinderella may not be my favorite princess but she sure is a special one. This story made me tear up in a few places. And it kept me fairly hooked.
This is one I’ll reread through the years. Thank you for your mind, Jennifer Donnelly!
