At first glance, If the Boot Fits by Karen Witemeyer sounds like it would be a Cinderella story. However, there isn’t a mean stepmother or cruel stepsisters.
The only elements that resemble Cinderella are the ball and the lost “slipper” (or boot, in this case).
So far, the story doesn’t really feel like a Cinderella retelling—and honestly, that’s part of why it has been a bit disappointing for me.
It leans more toward a slow-paced Western with small bits of action.
Right now, the pacing feels slow, and it’s been a little hard to stay interested. I was expecting something more engaging or more clearly connected to the Cinderella theme, but it hasn’t really felt that way yet.
There are some good ideas—like themes of truth and forgiveness—but so far, it just hasn’t drawn me in.
I actually skipped to the end of the book. I couldn't finish it because I found it very boring. But others might enjoy this book.
