![]() ![]() Oh, but I’m supposed to be talking about this version-so, “Ash” is the (barely) 18 yo protagonist who is discovered by a misogynist/sadist twice her age, and she is coerced into exchanging her beauty/power for cash. Neglect, omission, inattention-yeah, the remarried man with a daughter he doesn’t seem to know or see in a personal way is ripe for humiliation by the society she lives in-whether she works as a maid or not. How a girl with “daddy issues” is most likely the spawn of an ineffectual, quiet narcissist who is never blamed for not protecting his daughter at all-ever-from being tortured and abused in his own home. The evil step-sisters are replaced with rapey step-brothers, the step-mother is evil as always, and wow-this book made me realize just how very horrible Cinderella’s real father is in EVERY iteration of this old fairy-tale. ![]() ![]() Well, well, well-this is the smuttiest Cinderella story I’ve ever read □ and the book cuts itself off before she even gets to the ball. ![]()
