Just Ella by Margaret Peterson Haddix

1.0

 Okay, this one's on me. I picked this up without even glancing at the synopsis, and that was only the first mistake.

Cinderella falling in love with someone other than her prince? No thank you! My belief in true love has to stem from somewhere and I won't let this boring book ruin it for me.

Ella was incredibly whiny about her circumstances, despite having everything she needs at her fingertips. Sure, she can't have every one of her heart's desires, but she has the basics, something that can't be said about her former situation. Instead she moans about the crusty bread in her village. Sounds like the Cinderella I remember.

What a surprise- DNF.
