I found this book at the library when browsing one day. I have loved reading about fairy tales and different twists on them. I loved reading this book and yesterday I spent several hours just sitting on the couch reading it. I was sad when it ended because I immediately wanted the next one. But due to today being a holiday the library is closed, so it will have to wait at least another day. I really liked the authors writing style and it was fun to envision this story. I would recommend this book to a person who likes a twist on fairy tales and wants a fairly quick read....but who is also prepared to read the rest of the series.
Here is a link via youtube that shows a fan-made preview of what they thought would be a good preview for the book. Cinder Youtube Preview
