Cinder-Marissa Meyer
Book 1 of the Lunar Chronicle
Series, this book is a re telling of our lovely Cinderella BUT let me tell you
this, you will love Cinder. She is not
your typical princess, she is a cyborg mechanic who lives in Beijing China,
which means she is not 100% human, she is actually 37.5% robot. She lives with her adoptive family, a mother
and 2 daughters, the father died of the terrible disease that is attacking our
planet. The mother and 1 of the
daughters don’t like Cinder, but the younger daughter loves Cinder. Cinder is a mechanic and spends her days
offering her services in the fair, which is where she meets Prince Kai, when he
went there looking for her to fix her android.
When Cinder’s little sister contacts the disease and dies, the mother
volunteers Cinder to the palace for research in finding the cure for the
disease. There is finds out that she is
immune to the disease and she agrees to help Dr. Flynn in finding a cure. There is where she bumps into the prince
again and again and they start to bond and talk. Thinks starts getting weird and also going to
downhill when the Emperor dies and the Queen of Luna comes to visit Earth. At the end of the book Cinder is in jail, for
what? Well, you just have to read the book to find out.
Great book, great series, I
totally recommend this book in a heartbeat.
Scarlet-Marissa Meyer
Book 2, wow, that’s how I’m going
to start this review. I love Marissa
Meyer’s writing and the way she introduces you to totally different characters
that somehow blend perfectly together.
In book 2 Cinder is trying to escape prison and she finds help on the
way, which is when we meet Thorne, a prisoner.
Then we meet Scarlet and Wolf, 2 characters and story line that keeps
you wondering how they are going to blend in with Cinder and then boom, it
happens and it’s perfectly written.
Let me tell you a little about
Scarlet (the little red hood), she lives in France and her grandmother is
missing and she will do anything, I mean anything to find her even when the
police gives up on the case. She meets
Wolf, a street fighter that tells her that he has information about her
grandmother and can help Scarlet find her.
And they do and things don’t go according to plan and on the way she
meets Cinder and things get 100% more complicated.
Cress-Marissa Meyer
Book 3, and I think my favorite
of the series so far, let’s not forget there is another book coming out next
year, I cannot wait for it. Well let’s
go back to the review. In this book we
meet Cress, which is the re telling of Rapunzel, she is a shell and from
Luna. She has been stuck in satellite
since she was a little girl, she is the Queen’s programmer and IT person up
there. But she is tired of living that
way and she is not a fan of the Queen, so she doesn’t think twice when Cinder
contacts her to help them out. During
the rescue things go down south and Cress and Captain Thorne are left on the
satellite and crashing to Earth. You
really get to know Thorne in this book; he is funny, courageous and just
amazing.
Cinder is still finalizing a plan
to save Kai and it’s a crazy plan but everyone is on board and ready to help
her. During the rescue of Cress, Scarlet
is taken as a prisoner to Luna, Wolf is devastated but still ready to help Cinder. One of the Queen’s soldier is left behind
with Cinder and uses him to help her thinking that he knows about her been the
Princess but he is there to help the Princess but it’s not Cinder, it’s Winter,
the Queen’s stepdaughter. Lots of action
happened on this book which by the end it just left you craving for more of
this story. I don’t want to spoiler the
end, but you can say that Cinder’s plan was pretty great.
So, if you haven’t start reading
this series, please do yourself a favor and go read it, it’s just to amazing
for you not too. That’s it for now…
XOXO,
Nelia
