I enjoyed reading this Cinderella retelling. Although the ending was a bit predictable, the interpolated science fiction made the story a lot more interesting than your standard fairy tale. Though I did find Cinder annoying and a bit ignorant at times, I love her background and character overall. It ends on a cliffhanger, leaving you wanting to read the next installment. I bought the series a while back but never got the chance to read them, and I’m glad I finally did.
