Caught between duty and freedom, loyalty and betrayal, she must uncover secrets about her past in order to protect her world’s future."

Cover Appeal

This is by far, one of my favorite covers. I love the simplicity yet it seems complex too. When everyone sees the shoe, everyone probably thinks, oh Cinderella! But then, questions follow. Why does she have a metal leg? Why is she named Cinder? I also love how all of her covers connect to the fairy tale that it was based after.Anyway, for Cover Appeal this hit the top!

Okay, everyone says try to make a good impression.Well, I think that's ts the same thing with books. So, to get to the point authors that dazzle me in the first chapter are masters in my book. Anyway, back to topic. Marissa Meyer paints the scenes with words to make me feel that I'm actually there. Each of the characters feel real, and not just made up.

Right to the part that you have all been rating for: the review.
Cinder is an excellent first to the series  and as a character. This book is follows the adventure of Cinder, a cyborg that lives in New Beijing.As we are introduced to the plot,The Lunars, we learn about the plague, her mysterious past, and Prince Kai. Meyer did a fantastic job making the characters grow,for exanple in the book we see Cinder grow from a shy cyborg to a person who stands up to what she believes in. This is one of my favorite book series of all time and I'm sure that i will soon post the reviews for Scarlet and Cress. In the meantime you can check out Marissa Meyer's here . And well, read
