There's nothing wrong with being a girly girl. It was implied that part of someone's finger was chopped off.ġ.) A Main Character Who Isn't Completely Hardcore and/or Tomboyish - I've heard some people didn't like Cress as much and I think that's because Cress didn't fit the popular hardcore tomboyish character that's trending right now. Cinder compares herself to Queen Levana and fears becoming her and Cress constantly recalls the trauma she endured with Mistress Sybil.Ĭontent Cautions: This book was pretty darn clean. The Theme: I think a big theme is not letting your relatives or the people who raised you completely define you. More details are revealed about it in this book. I also really like the glamor that the Lunars have. I love the variety of settings this book has.Įpic Things: I love it when Iko is the ship that the ship expresses her emotions like heating up when she's embarrassed or letting out a puff of air when she's sighing. We also finally get some hands-on experience on Luna, even though it's frightening. A good portion of the book is set in Africa particularly in the Sahara and small towns. The Setting: This book brings new settings, but then also takes us back to an old and familiar setting. I love how Iko evolves in the story and it makes me happy that a dream of hers is finally fulfilled in this story. Each of them are essential to the plot and grow. He rises to prominence in this book and has a neat journey that skirts around the original fairy tale.Ĭinder, Kai, and Scarlet don't fade into the background though. I also love the depth that Thorne gains in this book. She's dreamy and a bit naive, but I feel like this suits her personality. Cress is girlier than the other two and loves singing and acting yet she also has a talent for hacking. Cress is very different from the previous two protagonists, but I love how each of them are so unique.
The Characters: In addition to Cinder and Scarlet now we have Cress. The plot kept me engaged from the beginning to the end. This book also tackles a lot of point of views, but they flow together and don't detract from one another. I like how she introduced elements even from the first book that come into prominent play in the third book. She foreshadowed so much in her previous books and now much of it has come to fruition.
I love how intricately Marissa Meyer wove the plot. The Plot: The plot has definitely warmed up. I really enjoyed Cinder and Scarlet, so of course, I had to give Cress a shot! After Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets took too long to come in on my hold list I went ahead and got Cress. Publisher: Square Fish Reprint edition (January 27, 2015)
