A Curse of Ash and Iron by Christine Norris – Review by La Toya Lewis

A Curse of Ash and Iron by Christine Norris
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A Curse of Ash and Iron by Christine Norris is a retelling of Cinderella. In Philadelphia 1876 Benjamin Grimm reunites with his friend Eleanor Banneker. He is saddened when he realizes that she has been living under a spell as a servant in her own home. This was such a fun take on Cinderella. The story balances magic and realism very well. It was nice to see old story beats mixed with new elements. The relationship between Benjamin and Eleanor is sweet. This was a very engaging story. A fun retelling with nice historical facts woven in. Very enjoyable.
