Am I the only person who hated this book?

*I simply hated . I wonder if someone else did not like and why? and if they liked it , why?
*Simplemente lo odié. Quisiera saber si a alguien más no le gustó y porqué? y si les gustó, porqué?



Yes, yes you are :)

No, your not the only one. There's never going to be an "only one" on an opinion. There's too many of us. :)

@Caylah Just because someone disagrees with you on a book doesn't mean they have to "get out of their box" it could just mean it's not their cup of tea.

I disliked it for a few reasons.
1- Very flat and annoying characters. Aria and Perry kept complaining about each other throughout most of it. They argued over anything and enjoyed being rude to each other. Then they turn a 180 and they decide "I actually care about him/her." Having basic archetypes and nothing memorable. Banal kinds of characters I've seen before.
2- Lack of focus on the thin plot. Kept focusing on these annoying characters to steer the story.
3- Very forgettable and I couldn't connect or care about anybody.
There were other things but can't remember them now.


i liked the hatred and how they overcame it in the book

But there was one character i adored and he is probably why i enjoyed the books so much! it's roar! FRICKEN LOVEEE HIM!


I loved this book it showed how people would be if the were treated differently. I don't understand why you hated it. Maybe you just need to get outside of your box.

It wasn't perfect but its absence of insta-love, i.e. they didn't meet and decide they were destined for each other from the first glance, and instead had to develop a relationship over time by, you know, getting to know each other, and didn't talk all lovey-dovey squishy constantly puts it a cut above most of the romance-themed YA I've been trying to read lately.
If it's not your thing it's not your thing. No book's going to please everyone. I mean I can't stand The Fault in Our Stars. A blasphemous thing to say, I know.


It was scary. I didn't like the violence. I would have liked it better if there had been a deeper meaning.


I didn't like it either. The plot felt weak and there were a few clichés that bothered me. It started out a little slow and the writing was more descriptive than lyrical (which is maybe just a personal preference). There were some nice ideas and I actually really liked Cinder, but it just didn't work for me.
