Lady Tremaine by Rachel Hochhauser (2026), 352 pages
Mother's
always know that sometimes hard choices need to be made for the future of your
children. Sometimes those choices make you appear to be an evil Stepmother in
the eyes of the very children you are protecting. This novel is a loose twist
on Cinderella. It follows Etheldreda as she navigates surviving twice-widowhood
in a crumbling house with little income, and three daughters who are coming of
age. I don't want to give too much away, but it is a great look into
single-parenthood, the resourcefulness of fake-it to you make-it(ish), and
standing up for what is right while staying true to yourself. This is an
imaginative take on the story and definitely worth a read.
