A quick, summer-y read. Finished this one in one sitting, ~2 hours. It was definitely enjoyable but would not rank high on my list of Cinderella inspired stories (ie. Cinder or Ella Enchanted which top that list!). 
 For one thing, when Tate the MC's BFF tells her that getting a misdemeanor is not a big deal she responds with "If you really believe that, there's a beach in Antarctica I'd like to sell you to." LIKE ??? WHAT? #whenyourroastsareworsethanbeef 
 (I actually do like roast beef though) 
 alSO cAn wE tAlK AbOUt tHE InSTAlOVe okay fine Cinderella is basically the epitome of instalove but (view spoiler)[what kind of teenage guy is like wow this girl looks cute I'm going to talk to her wow she hates my art work poster thing ahah she's so cute!!! (hide spoiler)] 
 LIKE PLEASE NO WHAT ARE YOU DOING SHE HAS NO PERSONALITY. 
 ACTUALLY NO ONE HAS PERSONALITY. 
 Her new friends Abby and Hunter? blip. 
 Her stepmother? blip. 
 The love interest who has green eyes "the same color as sea glass"? BLIP. 
 The "fairy godmother" person that did basically nothing and was there just to act as a source of $$$ for Tatum and her personal cheerleader? B-L-I-P. She distracted from what I believe was the author's intended purpose, to tell the story of a girl who learns to believe in herself and make her own decisions instead of relying on an abuela to teach her everything. 
 Even Ashlyn, Tatum's supposed "BFF" had no motives beyond being a bad-girl for once and going against her father's expectations. WHERE HAVE WE SEEN THIS BEFORE OH YEAH EVERY SINGLE YA BOOK EVER?!?!? 
 This said, I did enjoy the emphasis on the importance of art in this book. Tatum's sister dances, the love interest plays cello, and Tatum runs a graphic design business. tHE CoVeR iS GoRGeOUs ToO!! 
 Disappointing debut overall, but not so bad that I would have to sell it to a beach in Antarctica.
