BOOK REVIEW 


CINDER
by Marissa Meyer 




OK Let's go ahead and jump right into this because I've been putting it off for quiet sometime.

I don't know what the hell made me procastinate reading ''CINDER'' for so long. The book was on my TBR list forever. 

I finally read it and I LOVED it. I mean come on hats down for Marissa Meyer for this, fairytale retelling and a cyborg cinderella ???? NAILED IT 

Cinder is a mechanic and half cyborg. She is poorly treated by her stepmother and stepsister. The other stepsister loves her. 

One day the prince of Beijing, where the story takes place, visits Cinder's booth and asks her to fix his android and the fairy tale begins with him falling for her, typical, without knowing she is a cyborg. 

However a plague breaks in and Cinder's sister gets infected. From there things start to get complicated . From that point Lunars appear in the picture and let me tell you this , their queen Levana is an awfully disturbing character. 

Marissa Meyer did a hell of a job on her character . Levana actually gave me nightmares because I would read right before I go to bed and TADAAA there is it Levana creeping into my dreams and twisting them . Just like that I decided to not finish the book at night LOL. 

Moving on. The plot is really intriguing and well done , a true page turner. The characters develop wonderfully especially Cinder. She grows and rebels , steps in the shoes of a protector , victim , hero , outcast etc.. Besides I think that choosing Beijing for the story to take place in is impeccable.

I have to stop myself now or I will start blabbing about the story line and most probably spoil t for you . So I leave you with this hoping that you like it and enjoy the book when you decide to pick it up. 

 

That's it for this review , thank you and see you next time . bye
