I think I may have liked this bonus book the best of the series. Maybe it's because I like psychological thriller-type books, but I found Levana's story fascinating. She is cray cray. It was interesting/sad to watch her go from victim to complete psycho and how she justified her decisions. I would recommend reading this one before reading book #4. It took me maybe 2-3 hours, a really fast read.

I had a hard time reading this one. Everything the main character does is so wrong, and so dark...

venho aqui refutar aquele post do tumblr e dizer que: se eu tivesse lido esse antes de ler a quadrilogia principal eu continuaria odiando a levana da mesma maneira.
explica muitas coisas do comportamento dela? explica, mas foi mal ai gente, a maluquice e mau caratismo é crédito dela própria.
de qualquer maneira eu amo histórias de origens de vilões então aproveitei o livro (li em menos de 10 horas) e sinto que a autora podia ter se aprofundado um pouco mais em alguns pontos!

Not quite sure what the point was here. I get that it's a tragic origin story but Levana is just SO bad, so irredeemably evil from the start that it was more frustrating than anything. In the beginning, she's a young girl searching for love but is so delusional that she doesn't even know what love is. She does know that she's torturing her guard though, and she continues to do it. There is no effort to change in any way. It was disturbing and made her seem more two-dimensional than a complex villain. I think it should have been tempered with other points of view, maybe Winter's or baby Cinder's.

really sad and really REALLY messed up. i started feeling sympathy for Levana cause her sister is so awful but like—Levana is disgusting tooooo—but i think its better that we hate her cause shes awful. a lotta stuff that happened in the series makes more sense now

This girl is beyond messed up, if it was a book instead of a short novella I think I would have enjoyed it more.
