About this listen

Bloomsbury presents Cinderella Is Dead by Kalynn Bayron, read by Bahni Turpin.

"Wholly original and captivating." – Brigid Kemmerer, New York Times bestselling author of A Curse So Dark and Lonely

Girls team up to overthrow the kingdom in this unique and powerful retelling of Cinderella from a stunning new voice that’s perfect for fans of Dhonielle Clayton and Melissa Albert.

It’s 200 years after Cinderella found her prince, but the fairy tale is over. Teen girls are now required to appear at the Annual Ball, where the men of the kingdom select wives based on a girl’s display of finery. If a suitable match is not found, the girls not chosen are never heard from again.

Sixteen-year-old Sophia would much rather marry Erin, her childhood best friend, than parade in front of suitors. At the ball, Sophia makes the desperate decision to flee, and finds herself hiding in Cinderella’s mausoleum. There, she meets Constance, the last known descendant of Cinderella and her step sisters. Together they vow to bring down the king once and for all—and in the process, they learn that there’s more to Cinderella’s story than they ever knew . . .

This fresh take on a classic story will make listeners question the tales they’ve been told, and root for girls to break down the constructs of the world around them.

Wow!

Loved the storyline. Kalyann put a good twist on the Disney princess story of Cinderella. The narrator did awesome as well, loved how she gave a voice to each character and pronunciation and style of speech was different for each character. Love the book, couldn’t recommend it more.

So good

I loved the story. It had a good pace and characters. I called some of the turns but some were still surprising.

Such a worthwhile listen.

Excellent!

I loved this story. Couldn't stop listening! A dark twist on Cinderella that kept me hooked until the end. Exploring important aspects of society that are present in real life, this story highlighted the importance of standing up for what you believe in and for fighting for what's right, never accepting anything less. A gem.
