Cinder by Marissa Meyer Review

I know, I know!  How far behind am I?!  
But, I FINALLY picked up Cinder by Marissa Meyer! And I'm hooked on the series now!  I have already downloaded the second book in this Lunar Chronicles series, Scarlet!  Going to MAKE myself do a little studying for midterms before I start reading though! haha

So...down the the nitty gritty review...


3.6 stars - This books was slow starting for me. Fairly young. Though, I did really enjoy Cinder's sarcasm and her playful side throughout even though her story isn't a happy one. However, about two thirds of the way through it kicked into high gear and has me very much wanting to read the next book in the series. The ending was pretty good and I am excited to find out how other retellings will intertwine with this sci-fi Cinderella story! Had this story been quicker in the beginning, it would have easily warranted a higher rating.  Something tells me this series is going to get better as it goes on!!! Recommend!
