The book is just all filler. The plot from Cinder was barely developed, Wolf and Scarlet are too extreme for me, and the pace was so slow. Love Cinder and Marissa Meyer, but if I reread the series in the future, I would skip this book.

Not quite as exciting as its predecessor, but still holds up as a decent YA scifi, though the red riding hood connection is a little more forced than the other adaptations in the series.

This was a good book, probably better than the previous one in the series.

Even though I thought I would hate it, I actually ship Wolf and Scarlet so hard HAHAH.
