Heartless by Marissa Meyer

4.0

I haven't read all of the Lunar Chronicles, yet, but I liked them enough that when I heard about this book I was eager to pick it up. It didn't disappoint and I actually found Meyer's writing a bit more sophisticated in Heartless. However I felt there were a couple of spots that left me wanting more, because I felt as though they weren't as climatic to me as they had been to the protagonist, which left me with a bit of a disconnect. The Protagonist herself, I connected with off and on. Overall I connected with her really well, but there were occasions where I found her annoying and irritable.
Overall and enjoyable read, I found myself rooting for her dreams to come true with the sad realization that somehow someway....they wouldn't, but at the same time hoped she wasn't the one to fall into that fate. It's definitely changed my perspective on the Queen of Hearts, and I feel heartbroken for her.
