All the elements of the fairy tale were referenced, kind of, but … far from having to go to great efforts to get to the ball, this Cinderella has to practically be dragged, and once there has to practically be nailed to the ballroom floor. I’ve been painfully shy all my life, and I wanted to shake Arella. “She writes characters you cannot help but like…” – A painfully shy Cinderella, with absolutely lovely stepsisters and stepmother… Or is she painfully shy? The story’s ending casts some doubt on that, for me. What Eyes Can See – Elisabeth Brown – “the romance of this collection”. Usually a collection of stories, whether by one author or several, is hit or miss… unfortunately, this one is pretty much “miss”. This is a collection of – in case it’s not obvious – five stories inspired by or riffing on Cinderella. ![]()
