Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Author Marissa Meyer definitely hit a home run in her debut novel, Cinder. It is very loosely based on the classic Cinderella story in that Cinder does has a wicked step-mother and two step-sisters, one evil and one sweet step-sister, Peony, whom Cinder loves. Cinder is a cyborg, part human – part man-made. She works as a mechanic repairing androids and port screens. And who just happens to need his android worked on? None other than the handsome prince!
I was excited to learn Cinder is the first book in the Lunar Chronicles and will be followed by Scarlet (based on Little Red Riding Hood), Cress (based on Rapunzel), Winter (based on Snow White) and Fairest - a prequel to the other books and based on the Evil Queen from Snow White. Cannot wait to read these others!
Cinder was on the Oklahoma High School Sequoyah Reading list for 2015. ~ Anita Hill, 2015
