~Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Paperback, 387 pages
Published January 5th 2012 by Puffin

Humans and androids crowd the raucous streets of New Beijing. A deadly plague ravages the population. From space, the ruthless lunar people watch, waiting to make their move. No one knows that Earth’s fate hinges on one girl…


Cinder, a gifted mechanic, is a cyborg. She’s a second-class citizen with a mysterious past, reviled by her stepmother and blamed for her stepsister’s illness. But when her life becomes intertwined with the handsome Prince Kai’s, she suddenly finds herself at the center of an intergalactic struggle, and a forbidden attraction. Caught between duty and freedom, loyalty and betrayal, she must uncover secrets about her past in order to protect her world’s future.

I’ve read a lot of fabulous books this month but Cinder was the most amazing of them all. I can’t express enough how much I’ve enjoyed this book. Everyone should read it!

    • Most of them are short stories so they got short reviews on Goodreads but I enjoyed a lot of them immensely!
