Actual rating 4.5 StarsI liked Cinder, it wasn't anything magical or something that really stood out to me, it was just okay. However Scarlet the second book in The Lunar Chronicles has made me think again. I honestly really liked this book, I liked the new characters. I can't even decide between Scarlet, Wolf and Thorne because they al bring something different to the plot.The building of the story progressed really well, I was curious as to how these two stories would entwine, but it was11/8/15 - UPDATED thoughts and miscellany: Still my favorite in the series, for more than one reason. Obviously, I love Wolf. But I equally love Scarlet: I just think we shouldnt judge her, or anyone, without trying to understand them first. That maybe we should get the full story before jumping to conclusions. Crazy notion, I know. PREACH. And while most people would react to Wolf's "enhancements" with disgust: So are there any other oddities I should know about? A tail, perhaps? Finally, he
Edit: i kind if realized how much i hate myself for giving this four stars. I have sinned omg, changing my rating to five stars like right fucking now, THIS BOOK WAS TEN THOUSAND TIMES BETTER THAN Cinder. Scarlet and Wolf will be the literal death of me. I'm incapable of writing a review for this. It's just....READ IT PLS. THIS LAST IMAGE KILLED ME. I actually screamed you guys.I love Wolf so much it hurts. I need a Wolf in my life.
There should be more to this book.I'm a sucker for a good fairytale rewrite - so I (mostly) enjoyed this retelling of Red Riding Hood. BUT, the couple in this one (Scarlet and Wolf) and the book in general seemed to be missing something. Whats your name, anyway?That awkward shrug again. They call me Wolf at the fights. Wolf? How predatory." It's like they are on the cusp of being truly great but fell a smidge short. Their rapport just seemed...off... Forced might be a better word. Wolf, are
Even in the Future the Story Begins with Once Upon a Time. Once Upon a Time, there was a little girl (let's call her Rina) who loved fairytales. Her favorite was Red Riding Hood, and she knew this story by heart since she was 2-years-old (everyone thought that this was a sign of her intelligence but in my opinion it was a warning. A warning that she'd never shup up). The girl grew up and decided to become a lawyer (so that people would pay her to talk non-stop) and she came across a
Man, this just keeps getting better and better.At first, I couldn't be bothered with Scarlet's story and had a mini heart attack when her story started because I thought Cinder's finished (idk man, I'm dumb)Anyhoo, this book was way better than the first one. Sure I liked the first book but this had a lot more action, a lot more loveable characters *cough*Thorne*cough* and Scarlet was a straight up badass. I mean the girl carries a gun. Nuff said.Oh and of course, Wolf was amazing.This book is
I really didn't want to write this review because I hate being an outlier, especially when I'm being Debbie Downer. I fully expected to love this one. After all, I gave Cinder four stars and by all accounts Scarlet is even better. Perhaps I was expecting too much, but I also have to chalk some of the discrepancy to a change in taste. The things that irritated me about Scarlet were issues I noted with Cinder, only they were more problematic for me this time around. The first sign that Scarlet and
