I may have mentioned this when I was doing my review for "Part of Your World". The Little Mermaid and Cinderella were my two all time favorite movies as a kid. They still hold a very special place in my heart. So I was a little leery when I started this book due to that childhood love, but soon realized that I had nothing to worry about. The story had a lot of similarities with the movie at the beginning but that's pretty much where that stopped. Occasionally a line would be said that made me think of the movie. But the whole story from start of finish had me wanting more. The character development was remarkable, not only do you get an in-depth look at Cinderella, Prince Charles, The Grand Duke and even the king a little. But new characters were introduced as well so seamlessly that it felt like they were always there in the first place.
For anyone who like me loved Cinderella as a child and still. This is a definite must read.
