Cinderella Is Dead By Kalynn Bayron

Cinderella Is Dead by Kalynn Bayron is a bold reimagining of the classic fairy tale, blending fantasy, romance, and social commentary. Set 200 years after Cinderella found her happily-ever-after, the kingdom of Lille is a place where girls are required to attend the Annual Ball to be chosen by suitors or risk punishment. For Sophia, a strong-willed 16-year-old, this oppressive tradition is unbearable. She dreams of a different life, one where she can love who she chooses like her best friend, Erin.

When Sophia flees the ball and discovers the ruins of Cinderella’s tomb, she learns that the fairy tale she grew up believing may not be true. With the help of Constance, a descendant of Cinderella’s family, Sophia sets out to overthrow the king and reclaim her voice in a society built on lies. Cinderella Is Dead is a thrilling tale of rebellion, courage, and the power of rewriting your own story.
