Cress, re-imagined Rapunzel, is trapped on a satellite instead of a tower. I liked her character right away, and it’s nice that we get to learn more about Carswell Thorne. Cress doesn’t feel like a side story the way Scarlet did, because much more happens to advance the plot of the trilogy.

I feel like the author really followed the ‘what would be the worst thing I can have happen to this character now?’ method of writing for this book. I can’t say too much about Cress without spoilers, but it’s ...more

If you haven't started reading this series yet I don't know we're you've been either your waiting for the last book to come out ( which is probably smart) or your Craz SPOILER FREE I PROMIS!

Anyways that was kinda just one big rant about how much I love this series but anyways I'll just start out with the character's.

As I said in my rant I love every single one of these characters especially the main heroines in this series. Cinder,Scarlet, Cress, and Iko ( yes she counts!) are so strong and brave and I can't wait to see what Winter brings to this series but I can already tell from that small snippet that we saw her that she's going to be awesome. I love the guys in this series Kai, Thorne ( Captain Carswel Thorne <3 ) Wolf and I do believe Jacin counts and I am so happy he was in this book! They are all so charming and heroic ( even Thorne no matter how much he denies it.) One thing that all these characters have in common that I just love is their all funny in their own ways and I love to laugh and I think that's one of the main reasons why I love this series because there is not just one comic relief there is multiple :) Especially Thorne and Iko who are hilarious!

The Plot of this book and the entire series is just spectacular some stuff is slightly predictable but I think that's how it's suppose to be but it's not so predictable were your like I totally knew that was coming. But while you'r distracted by that, all of a sudden something unexpected happens and your just like well that came out of nowhere.

The Writing is amazing and perfect in every way possible. I love seeing every characters perspective it's just amazing. In other series I'm always dying to know what the other characters are thinking but in this book Im just like finally I don't have to guess all the time. I am slightly sad though that we didn't get to hear from Wolfs perspective and I wish we could of heard more from Scarlet but that is literally my only complaint in this entire series.

I can't wait for Winter and I can believe we have to wait an entire year. But what do you guy's think of the series. Did you love it? Or did you just like it? To me there's no way you can hate this series. ...more
