Cress by Marissa Meyer

4.0

I’m so deep in the series that I’m automatically a huge fan - such an interesting concept!

As I keep reading the books I find that the character narration changes from chapter to chapter to have little pay off. It’s basically just the same voice with a different main character. I think this could add a lot to character building and the story line but it just falls flat.

I’m never bored while reading these books but since the events are somewhat predictable (mostly), I did find myself wanting to get through sections until the plot diversion ended. I also felt like those were opportunities to build up characters and relationships and fell a little short.

Iko is the best. Lin is the worst. Kai is so rando. I missed scarlet. Cress is ok. I love when she gets her hopes up and then is wrong bc RELATABLE!

It’s insane to think that the only computer hacker on the whole moon capable of certain tasks is a 16 year old girl but that’s ok.
