Re read August 2016

I’m so glad I decided to re-read the series before reading Winter and Stars Above. Cinder has been as enjoyable and exciting as the first time I read it in 2012 and I can’t wait to continue with Scarlet and Cress. The Lunar Chronicles is an epic space adventure that nobody should miss and I couldn’t be happier to be reunited with these characters.

Aaahhh!!! Tenía mis dudas pero al final Cinder me ha gustado tanto como la primera vez que lo leí. Me he emocionado,

Wow. Just wow. I am very, very late to the Lunar Chronicles fandom train, but better late then never I guess!

I am so surprised with how much I adored this book that is so out of my normal reading realm. Sci-fi, high fantasy, future is not my thing, but Cinder hooked me anyway. I absolutely adored her wit. All of the supporting characters fit do well, even the ones I don't like! I am now chomping at the bit to get my hands on the rest of the series!

Wow... that was good. I don't think I have read a book of this length this fast since the last Hunger Games book.

I already ordered the next two, but they will not be here until tomorrow.. what am I supposed to do until then?! I must find out what happens now!

I absolutely loved this book. It had a combination of unique worldbuilding, interesting and diverse characters, and a great plot (I'm a sucker for fairytale retellings, but this does it even better than most.) I was having trouble sleeping the night before I completed it so I wound up tearing through the last 8 chapters until the wee hours of the morning, because the finale was so good at keeping me riveted that I had no idea what was coming next. My one complaint, keeping it at 4 stars instead ...more

A fun, unique twist on the Cinderella tale. Meyers did a nice job at making this old story fresh. You route for Cinder, though society and all odds seem against her.
