Best series

I remember falling in love with The Lunar Chronicles when I was like twelve, I was so obsessed I bought all of the books and got into fan art. Now I’m revisiting it years later because I’m feeling nostalgic. Cinder is such a perfect first installment and the series only gets better from here. The audiobook does it justice in that it feels like a movie when listening to it because you’re just so immersed.

I enjoyed it

I always meant to read this when I heard about it in high school. Seven years later and I’ve read/ listened to it completely. I really enjoyed it and I don’t think anyone should turn away for the YA genre. The world building is fascinating and the romance isn’t smothering to the main plot. 8/10 would recommend it to everyone!

One of my favorite series

I adore this series. I collect Disney, and by extension am forever interested in smart, unique retellings of classic fairy tales. I reread this series every couple of years because I love it so much. I deeply appreciate the fact that Cinderella is disabled in this version, as are various characters later in the series. I love the layers to it too. There’s romance obviously, but also sci-fi, fantasy, political intrigue later on… it’s just fantastic. In fact, I haven’t found a book by Marissa Meyer I didn’t devour.
