Lady Tremaine

by Rachel Hochhauser

A riveting reimagining of Cinderella from the "evil" stepmother's perspective, Lady Tremaine brilliantly upends the story we know by heart. You'll recognize elements of the original fairy tale (the mice, Cinderella's ripped dress, the ball), while marveling at how Hochhauser subverts them to tell a fierce, fresh story of womanhood. Bold, transporting, and deeply satisfying, this is an ode to a mother's love and to creating your own happily ever after. -Abby Abell, Amazon Editor
