Winter
by Marissa Meyer
"And they all lived happily to the end of their days."
I can't believe this is overrrr! I'll be living in denial about finishing this book. I am still not ready to say goodbye to everyone. There were some really amazing characters in this story, and they'll always have a piece of my heart. I will admit that this book was a bit slow compared to Scarlet and Cress. Initially, I felt like it was taking a while for anything to happen, but once it started going, it would not STOP. So many bad things kept happening to this group. I really just wanted them to catch a break (but this is essentially the story of their life lol)
Out of all the relationships introduced throughout the four books, Winter and Jacin were my least favorite. I think it has a lot to do with Jacin (bleh), his personality was just a miss for me. I didn't like the way he spoke, or how he did things, even though everything he did was for her. Winter was a wonderful character, and she definitely gave the perfect snow white vibes. She was loved by everyone, she was a bit sheltered, but she had a big heart.
↳"I believe they were boys once and they can be boys again. I believe I can help them, and they will help me in return."
In terms of character development, Cinder (our main fmc) has definitely come such a long way. She's been through so much, and she's grown with those experiences. She continued to struggle with the morality of certain situations, and she had to make some really hard choices. I loved seeing her internal struggle as a reader, it felt more relatable than a character who is confident that their choice was the right one.
↳ "Did it matter they were willing to die for her cause? Did it matter that they would sacrifice their own lives so she might succeed? She didn't know. She didn't know.
As a closing note, I just want to say that Cress and Thorne will forever be my favorite. They deserve EVERYTHING. I really wanted like five million epilogues because I just wanted to see so much more. I felt like none of the characters had a moment of peace throughout these four books, and if they did it was so very short lived. I just wish I could have seen what happened after everything (I am trying so hard to be spoiler free), but it's fine my imagination will have to do, I guess.
I miss everyone so much already. Nobody talk to me about this for at least a week. I'll be in my corner crying
