AT (1676 KP) rated Black Butler, Vol. 27 (Black Butler, #27) in Books
Nov 17, 2019 (Updated Nov 17, 2019)
The Black Butler series has taken an extremely dark turn. The story focuses on Ciel's horrific past, and how he came to make a contract with Sebastian. I enjoy the very different feel of the story at this point, but this volume definitely wouldn't be for everyone. There are various degrees of child abuse, some of which are very violent. This turn in the story gives the story a lot more dimension.

Possible triggers with child abuse being alluded to (no graphic descriptions but you are aware that it happens)
This is a dark, very different retelling of the classic Cinderella.
You won't find a nice Fairy Godmother or glass slippers here......death, slavery, abuse, yeah, that's here and you know what? I like it. I like the darkness, the fight that Ella has within her, the fire that she shows. I do feel sorry for her though, from the beginning the odds of a happy, fortunate life were stacked against her and people seemed to just take advantage......big mistake!
Definitely not a sweet fairytale for children. This is for adults with a glass of something strong in hand and a free evening.

Exploitation
Exploitation at its worst. It's terrible to subject children to some of these people chosen for this show. They may have the adults would make good tv but at what cost to the children who have to live with that stranger for a week. Parents who sign their families up for this should be visited by child protective services to determine what other poor decisions they have made involving their child's care because some of this stuff is borderline abuse.

Well what an unexpected book with a great ending! Abuse is a very touchy subject to write about fiction or not & Maggie did a great job delving into the mind of someone who had been abused as a child. It was a fast paced read that was just the right amount of twisted while still being quite believable at the same time. Mavy is a fascinating character...she seems so fragile & wears that mask well. But deep down inside she's a time bomb hiding behind a flour covered apron.
