I didn't loved a book and a series so much since a long time. Cinder was just... prefect. Really perfect.
I wasn't sure if to pick it up or not, because it was so long time ago since the series was originally release - but I'm so so glad I didn't let the release date affect my final decision.
The Cinderella retelling was just so on point, and the research the author did to make this book like it is too good. All the details, the well thought on plot, and the heart touching characters made me read this book in one sitting. I WASN'T ABLE TO PUT IT DOWN.
The characters are sooo good. Everyone of them, just made me so emotional. This is a genius series.

Why? Just why?
I loved Cinder so much, like I haven't like any book in a long time. I think Scarlet is really pointless.
Scarlet and Wolf character are not important to the plot in my opinion, not at all. Through the book the big world plot wasn't moved forwards almost at all, and it felt like the plot can be pushed to the start of Cress if you remove the Scarlet plot.
I really didn't like Scarlet, she was so boring and so stuck thinking about only one thing. Yes, she loved her grandmother, but that's all there's to this character. She was so generic, so not well thought on like the other characters in the story.
I wish this book wasn't excited, really. I know this is so harsh, but it was so pointless and really ruined my experience with this amazing plot and world.

I really loved the unique writing style and it was so cool to go backwards with the plot.

The world building is just... wow. 
The characters are so unique and deep, and it feels like a really thought on story. The details, also in the writing and also in the illustrations, just makes this story feel so good.

I read "My not so Perfect Life" and I was expecting a predictable, relatable plot, but it was really pointless. I really think the main character is unconscious, and the last thing I did is to relate to her feeling, because she acted so weird and not realistically.

I think this a great middle-grade graphic novel. I liked the illustrations, and the characters was really cute. A good story about accepting yourself.

This is really like reading a K-Drama, I get why everyone says it.
I actually wasn't excepting this book to be so Romance heavy, but if you realise it before getting to read it, you'll enjoy it. The writing is so poetical, and I really loved the characters and the plot. This is absolutely a book I'm going to recommend non-stop, and if you're looking for a romance book with beautiful writing and touching characters, this is for you.
The plot is really good also, and all the set-up was so fun!

Honestly, I was expecting more, but I did think this is the best in such a short book. The illustrations are so amazing, but the character and the plot are just basic. Middle grade lovers will enjoy it, but I'm not the biggest middle-grade fan.

YES YES YES!
I was so sad after reading Scarlet, I felt my current favorite series was ruined, but this book showed me again what I loved so much in this series from the start.
Cress character is so cute, but I truly think the rest is what made the book so great. The last 200 pages were so intense I couldn't do anything else than read this book to the end. The start of the book was nice, but my 5 star rating is for the end. I just wasn't expecting it, and I loved it.
