A fun YA dystopia! My biggest qualms are with Prince Kai’s pushy behavior and the lack of a satisfying ending. Even though you are making a series, I think it’s possible to make a cliffhanger adjacent ending that still gives the reader a bit of finality. I don’t think Cinder ever came to terms with her identity.

Im more eagar to read the second book than the first. It was an ok start but the by the ending of this one leaves for a promising second book. It kinds remind me of The Pledge by Kimberly Derting but not as good don't get me wrong this was an enjoyable read but it was lacking.
