Cinder is FANTASTIC. The Lunar Chronicles has quickly become one of my favorite series. :) I started Shatter Me (and need to finish it) and it was good. It didn't wow me or anything but it wasn't awful either.

Can't go wrong with any of them IMO. Under the Never Sky is the only series out of those that is finished, and I read all of them, really wonderful series all the way through. :) LOVED Cinder and Scarlet, still need to read Cress. And loved Shatter Me and Unravel Me, but have not read the last book yet. But I've heard its good!

GREAT DEAL! Well worth the price :)

Dnicole, Sand is a brand new story and its fascinating so far. Hugh released it the same way he did with Wool. In 5 books, each longer than the one before, and then finally in the Sand Omnibus, all 5 together. I bought a signed copy directly from him and he threw real sand in it. (Not a lot!) But I see that the sand is from a dog beach. Bwahahahaaa!

LOVED the Diviners. Fair warning--it is super creepy, and the murders deal with the occult, so the imagery is a little disturbing. But if you like suspense thrillers like Dean Koontz or Stephen King, it isn't any worse than those. The setting is perfect, the author really makes you feel like you are in NYC in the 1920s. The characters are the cat's meow, lol, especially the MC. Lots of funny moments to balance out the creepy. I seriously cannot rave enough about this book!
