Rapunzel is a hacker and her tower prison is a satellite  out in space in this incredibly clever, fun, sharp, and exciting third installment of the Lunar Chronicles. This was my favorite yet—because of the character of Cress herself. Her sensitivity and wonder provide such a foil for Meyer’s streetwise Cinder and Scarlet. They’re all lovable though! I love how Meyer plays with the key elements of the original fairy tales in her sci-fi setting.

At first I was very unmotivated to read this book because the beginning was quite slow. However as I reached the end the action picked up and I was on the edge of my seat. I met Winter who I’ve absolutely fallen in love with already. I almost cried at times, even. I am so very excited for the next books.
