Isn't it because she was reading the book before her death? So she immediately recognized which story she was in
I guess if she were reading a version where the characters all had those names, it'd make sense.
I dont think so? It just stated that there is a famous fairytale called cinderella, and her situation looks like cinderella fairytale, which make her asssumed that she is inside cinderella world? I dont think it is the real cinderella world, imo she just assumed it as cinderella world because of the similar situation?
Agree with you. I think she just assume her situation inside cinderella story because of some coincidences. But it is not the actual cinderella story
How does Mildred even know that she's in Cinderella? There's no proof except a similar backstory. What makes her so sure?
