A review by kautaru
Cress by Marissa Meyer

4.75

Yes! YES!!! No slow beginning? Check. Not predictable? Check. Entertaining throughout? Mostly check (Kai and Scarlet’s chapters were a little boring—sorry). Most importantly, Thorne and Cress moments??? BIG CHECK. Thorne (and Iko) are prob my favorite characters. Out of all the leads so far, Cress is prob my favorite as well. I feel like I’ve seen a lot of characters like Cinder and Scarlet (Cress is pretty basic herself, but more so in shojo manga lol). Also, why was I actually so sad with the death in this one? It hit a little too hard 😭 damn 
Long story short, this is the best of the series so far. I don’t think it’s quite a 5 stars, but it’s definitely better than Scarlet, so 4.75 stars.
