This is just a really fun adaptation of Cinderella. It's been on my list for ages and I found it enjoyable with a strong female protagonist and fun world-building. It definitely ends with you wanting to read the next installment right away though but overall this is a fun read that brings up inter...
"Cinder" got on to my TBR pile because I gave in to the hype. Everyone said it was fun. So I bought but didn't read it because, well it's a retelling of Cinderella. It's an affirmation of the Patriarchy. Handsome Prince rescues poor-but-worthy girl. In space! How exciting could that be? ...
I thought the step mother in the original was horrid. Geez Adri's a bitch.Is the dr supposed to be the fairy godmother? Every time a new character was introduced I kept trying to assign them a role from the original story. I would like to know why cyborgs are looked upon with such contempt. If...
german and english review (spoilerfree)audiobook on audible Es ist schon eine Weile her, 3 Jahre um genau zu sein, als ich das Buch zum ersten Mal gelesen habe, danach habe ich darauf gewartet, dass auch der Rest als Taschenbuch veröffentlicht wird, doch das ist bis heute nicht passiert.

Other than that, Cinder hersel...
I decided to re-read the Lunar Chronicles because it is one of my favourite series ever. And I still love it as much as the first time I read it. I fell in love with this story and its characters all over again. If you have never read this series I totally recommend it to you. If you love sci-fi a...
I'm divided on this one. I liked the writing. I liked the stab at representation and consent issues. New takes of old tales are always an interest to me, and the sci-fi slant is just more win. I could not get over Earland. On his own, he undermines most of the good bits about body-autonomy, cons...
First things first, the concept is pure genius. Turning the childhood classic tale of Cinderella into a modern-age, futuristic story that not just young teens might enjoy, but by everyone, too. Putting that big of a twist on such a simple story, Marissa Meyer definitely did a great job. Can’t wait t...
The Lunar Chronicles have become very popular as of late, and I finally picked up Cinder, and boy was I impressed. I have seen a few novels that mix-up the classic tale, the real one, like In a Glass Grimly, which is a very good book, but a book for younger kids. I've also seem some that change the ...
