Have you ever drifted off at work thinking about that super hot Ferrari, conquering Mt.Everest, or sailing the open sea? To your Wonderland of charming princes and princesses? Kat Young does too! Unfortunately she does so not only at work but everywhere she goes, with disastrous results that bring her back to reality so soon! Trapped in the monotony of life and work, Kat longs to be a part of daring rescues, savage wars and high flying client meetings, but sadly things do not always work out the way she dreams. With quite a few bumps and bruises along the way, Ms.Young learns about men and family, and love and friendship, while weaving colorful dreams, all of which might come true one day making it all a happy and successful reality.

"The Cinderella Blues" by Obren Bokich is a sweet, funny and truthful tale that warms the heart with a young girl's struggle to come to terms with her job, her relationships and family life. With two best friends that stick by her, a knack for picking the worst guys, a penchant for baking and a mother with ghosts from the past, the story brings to life the struggle we all have with reality while indulging in sweet dreams. Very interesting characters that come alive with a special role and purpose in the protagonist's life make for a fun and interesting read. As it is full of a strange mosaic of fantasies and reality, I can see how the title "The Cinderella Blues" is a perfect fit. Highly recommended for laughs, romance and a gentle reminder of our own lives and dreams. Go Cinderella!
