Though I love books with daring
heroines but still I was not impressed with Whitney. Somewhere in the middle of
the book I felt like slapping her , she was so irritating. Gurrr 🙁

The story baseline was very
strong but Carly could neither develop the story nor the characters. All
through the book, we are introduced to some character or the other with a
history but instead of telling us completely about them she just skips to some
other character which resulted in me getting frustrated and uninterested.
Whitney is initially shown as a girl with a backbone but then as the chapters
progress she is deteriorated to a senseless teen girl with no sense and her
instantaneous love with any boy within ten meters of her was infuriating. Gurr 🙁

The book can be summed as one with an unimpressive cover, underdeveloped plot and characters and sequences so uninteresting and predictable that I skimmed more than half the book though the story had a promising start.
I don’t like writing bad about a book because it takes effort
writing one but in this case I have to say that if you get the book from
someone, you might attempt a read but I certainly won’t recommend it.

I give Cinderella in Cleats
a 2.5 out of 5 just because there is no fault in the writing style of Carly and the story which, had it been written better could have become a very promising read.
