SEEING CINDERELLA by Jenny Lundquist 
Seventh grade is not going well for Calliope Meadow Anderson. Callie’s hair is frizzy, her best friend, Ellen, is acting weird, and to top things off, she has to get glasses. And her new specs aren’t even cute, trendy glasses—more like hideously large and geeky.
But Callie soon discovers that her glasses have a special, magical perk: When she wears them, she can read people’s thoughts. For the first time ever she’s answering all the questions right in math class, and gets a glimpse of what goes through people’s minds all day, including what Ellen—and her longtime crush—really think of her.
Crazy glasses aside, Callie has more drama to face when she’s cast as the lead in the school play—and instead opts to be an understudy, giving the role of Cinderella to Ellen. Can Callie’s magic glasses help her see her way to leading lady, or is she destined to stay in the background forever, even with her super freaky magic glasses?
Seeing Cinderella is available now for preorder!

I’d really like a pair of those Cinderella glasses! Do they come with the book (wink!)? They would be EXTREMELY helpful! Great idea. Hope she gets the leading lady role.

Yaaay! This looks like such a cute book! And I love the idea of glasses helping you to READ a person’s thoughts!

Sounds cute!
Usually i dont go for middle grade books but this sounds so cute and interesting! I def want a pair of those glasses! 😀
My 6th grade daughter will love this! Can’t wait, & good luck:)
Ahh, the power of eyewear! As an optician turned librarian, I can attest to that power, although perhaps not in quite the way Calliope is experiencing! Love the name Calliope too!
I wish my glasses came with mind reading powers! Definitely sounds like this will be an interesting read. 🙂
Great concept! Good luck with it!
Thanks for the contest. I wish that my glasses had magical powers.
Let someone else win since I have an ARC. Awesome contest.

I teach middle school, and this looks really cute. I think a lot of the girls I teach could relate to this.
Sounds like a great book for middle schoolers.
I don’t read a lot of MG, but this sounds really cute! Thanks for the awesomesauce giveaway! 😀

That’s a really interesting concept for a book! And it’s not like super-powers where she can’t NOT hear thoughts, she can opt to take her glasses off when she wants (at the cost of the sight I’d assume)
This YAmazing Race is awesome, thank you~
Sounds like it’d be fun to read. 😀 Really cute.
Sounds like a great read.
