Maybe there isn't such a thing as fate. Maybe it's just the opportunities we're given, and what we do with them.

This is the 3rd book in The Lunar Chronicles and I absolutely love Cress! Both the book and the person. She's so adorable--adorkable! Cress, the satellite girl, trapped by Mistress Sybil because she's such a useful hacker. She dreams of Earth and thinks she's a damsel in distress, idolizing Thorne and hoping he'll rescue her. She's definitely a dreamer.

I love this new character and so ...more

This series just gets better, and BETTER!
Rooting for Cinder and her rag tag group of misfits made up of a wanted criminal, an android, a genetically modified wolf, a Lunar Shell and an aging Lunar doctor, is so, so easy to do! You WANT this group of good guys to win!
And when the evil Queen Levana and her E-VILE minions make their appearances throughout the story? You want nothing more than than for their failure and yes, total and utter destruction.
Cress was a brilliant book with the most amazi ...more

In Cinder magic turned a cyborg into a princess, who I couldn't help liking.

"But you're a prisoner," said Thorne.
"I prefer damsel in distress," she murmured.

Cress, the newest edition to Cinder's group of misfits and criminals, doesn't have Cinder's legacy and Scarl ...more

I had a whole post typed out ready to post and... lost it in transit between home and Uni. And since it's my first week back at Uni after 3 months off, and each of my kids have been sick over the last week, I'm just too tired to try and rewrite it, so here's the condensed version.

Devoured this in a couple of days, beginning to wonder if I shouldn't have read this weeks ago to get out of my slump, or if it was just the realisation that my free time was over and this was my last chance for some n ...more

If this series teaches you anything it should be that communication could solve so many of our own issues. I'm really enjoying the character progression and the story flow. Meyer's is beyond amazing in making you binge read and having you demand more. I have backed myself into a corner, I must now wait for the next installment. ...more
