I didn’t take the first half of this very seriously, but by the end I was happy that I read this because it does offer additional information that can benefit us readers as we go on through the rest of the books. It helps us to see what Garan was like, at least for a moment, and how everything started for Cinder amongst his family.

I would recommend that fans of The Lunar Chronicles read this. It’s not life-altering, but I think it’s worth the trouble.

Most notably, I have never felt affected by book covers before, but I think this is the #1 most beautiful book cover I have ever seen in my life. I feel like now I can finally make a favorite book covers list, if only because I’ve seen this gem. I love the style and the colors and especially the details of her facial expression and her arm.
