Lady Tremaine

“What if Cinderella's wicked stepmother was just doing her best with a bad set of circumstances and annoying stepdaughter who insisted on feeding vermin? Literary, bold, and page-turning, feels like Marriage Portrait meets Circe. "You do not need to be afraid. You do not have to be good. You do not need to hide your fleshy interiors behind a carapace of frills and lace. Life is not meant for measurement. There is but one beat to heed. Live like this and you will know with certainty: You are the scariest thing in the woods.””

“I actually enjoyed this retelling from the villain's POV.”
