Stars Above (The Lunar Chronicles, #4.5) in READALONGS WITH APRIL

How could I give this anything less than 5 stars?

*has heart eyes over every part of this book*

....so there's my happy ending!

Marissa wrapped up one of my favorite series so elegantly, happily, but still with more room for further stories in the future.

All of the little stories were short and sweet (well not all of them) but the ones that stood out were The Princess and the Guard and Something Old, Something New.

“She started to cry.

Marissa wrapped up one of my favorite series so elegantly, happily, but still with more room for further stories in the future.

All of the little stories were short and sweet (well not all of them) but the ones that stood out were The Princess and the Guard and Something Old, Something New.

“She started to cry.
Jacin’s face twisted and he held his arms toward her.
All her concerns vanished as she scrambled onto the bed and buried her face in his chest. She was an idiot to think that getting older changed anything. This was, and would always be, the only place she belonged.”

Jacin's adoration for Winter will literally never fail to make me melt into a puddle. He's just so fucking cute towards her and they are absolute perfection together. The way they grew up together was heart warming but also heartbreaking- I mean his job is to protect her and ignore her like !!! We got the whole "scars on her face" scene and now I pretty much adore Winter as much as the rest of the Lunars do.

AND OMG THE LAST STORY.

It was all happiness and laughs and the whole squad back together and I was crying. Like, literal tears. On the subway in front of a confused looking businessman. Lmao, but the wedding was actually the cutest scene I have ever read. No spoilerz as to who's wedding it was though.

“Come on,” she said, reaching for Kai’s arm. “It’s a big day.”
Kai jerked in protest when her metal hand touched him, and Cinder recoiled.
“Stars, that hand gets cold,” Kai murmured. Rolling onto his back, he took the prosthetic hand in between both of his palms, warming it as he would warm icy fingers on a winter’s day. Cinder sat up and looked down at him. His eyes were still closed. He could have fallen asleep again, but for his palms rubbing over her metal hand. His shirt was rumpled, his hair tousled against the sheets”

I really never want this series to end. I adore all the characters, they're just all so good. Sigh. ...more

5 MARVELOUS STARS!

I loved everything about this bind up of novellas. Each one gave me feels. I'm so sad I read it so quickly because I don't want this world to end! Easily this series is on a very short list of favorites.

The Keeper: 5/5. I was hoping to see this while reading the series so I'm beyond happy she wrote this!

Glitches: 4/5. This was enjoyable and sad

The Queens Army 4/5 again, enjoyable but not a favorite

Carswell's Guide To Being Lucky: 3.5/5. Was hoping to see a little more badass ...more

The Keeper: 5/5
Absolutamente increible. Me encantó demasiado saber más de este personaje y la escena final me gustó bastante y my heart is full.

Fue bastante linda y bastante interesante al ver a Cinder llegando con Adri y Pearl. IKOOOOO.

3.5 stars. I loved reading about the characters' backstory. We got to see more from some characters and went into detail about their situations before the novels. My favourite stories were the princess and the guard, carswells guide, and the something new something old epilogue ...more

Great story. Something Old, Something New was amazing! Completed my wishes for two couples, especially my favorite one, Wolf and Scarlett. Definitely recommend for Lunar Chronicles fans!
