#TheRealCinderella

I needed something fluffy and simpler (compared to high-anxiety, psychological thrillers I've been binge-reading lately), and #TheRealCinderella by Yesenia Vargas was just what I needed.

["Geeky Ella Reyes is at the bottom of the totem pole at Westwood High. Her ultra-popular stepsisters refuse to be seen with her at school, and every day she comes home to a mountain of chores.


Ella’s only friend (and maybe crush) lives on the other side of her phone’s screen. She and Baller929 know everything about each other, except their real names.


When they have a chance to meet at her school’s Halloween ball, Ella must figure out a way to get there without her stepmom or stepsisters finding out.


Is revealing her identity to Baller929 worth risking the one good thing left in her life? Or is he too good to be true?"]



This book was a little (a lot) reministent of Hilary Duff's "A Cinderella Story", but there were still a lot of plot points that I didn't see coming, a lot of twists and stakes and Fairy Godmothers. 


If you need a break from all of that heavy reading and the stress of life (and the holidays and this pandemic and...well...everything), this book will do the trick. I mean, I read it all in one sitting (about 2 hours).
