I really enjoyed this book but I wanted a little more. I wanted to know why Winter is crazy.

Levana, is one twisted sister, tortured, and unloved. She barely grows up before she starts her own trail of tears and blood. A great look behind the scars to see what makes the horror Queen tick. This is her story from the beginning to the present, a story you need to know.

Interesting back story for Levana with hints at the histories of other characters. Read this one, but only after you read Cinder, Scarlet & Cress. This book tells the story of Levana from the time she was a naive, self-conscious young girl (with a huge crush on a married guard) to when she becom...

Fairest is the first novella I have ever read. I just do not care for novellas. I see them as money-grabbing extras that do not add to the story and are only published to exploit fans of a book series. If the content was that important then the author would include it to the actual book. I did not e...

I loved this insight into Levana's character. I feel like now I fully understand where she's coming from and how twisted her mind actually is. I was often full on cringing reading this, because her idea of what was happening was so wrong. She really does think she is a good queen, although she is in...

MaryAnn's Review: You know when you read a book or a series, and there’s a character in there that is just so terrible that you wonder what her deal is? What happened in her past that made them become this terrible person? Fairest by Marissa Meyer, which tells the story of Queen Levana before the st...

This story felt really choppy to me but enjoyed really understanding Levana better. I also think that this information helps understand why Winter is still around while Selene is not especially given the high levels of crazy that Winter has going on. If you like the Lunar Chronicles I'd still reco...

Most of the time, when I see a .5 in a series, it's a 30-70 page tale to fill in a narrative gap, or keep the fan base appeased, or something that doesn't come across as unintentionally offensive. Leave it to Meyer to toss in a 200 page .5 instead. So ever wonder what turned The Lunar Chronicles...

Like many people I think that this book was not necessary. Still, I was happy to discover the life of Levana. That was nice to try to understand what made her who she is today. I've read/watched lots of reviews about it and a lot of people said they had no sympathy for Levana. That's not my case. I ...
