Science Fiction. Folklore. Young Adult Fiction. HTML: *The #1 New York Times* Bestselling Series!** In this third book in Marissa Meyer's bestselling Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, now with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they're plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and prevent her army from invading Earth. Their best hope lies with Cress, a girl trapped on a satellite since childhood who's only ever had her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker. Unfortunately, she's being forced to work for Queen Levana, and she's just received orders to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice. When a daring rescue of Cress goes awry, the group is splintered. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a higher price than she'd ever expected. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing prevent her marriage to Emperor Kai, especially the cyborg mechanic. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only hope the world has. .… (meer)

Das war toll! Diesmal ist die Geschichte von Rapunzel inspiriert, und ich bin immer wieder begeistert von der Umsetzung! Und ich mag Thorne und Cress als Pärchen wirklich! Wie er sich immer schlecht macht, damit sie sich nur ja nicht verliebt. Und wie sie trotzdem schrecklich verliebt ist, dabei aber auch schrecklich schüchtern... Ich finde die zwei echt süß! Und auch sonst ist die Geschichte klasse, in der Mitte fand ich es etwas langatmig, insgesamt geht es aber zügig voran. 4 Sterne für diesen 3. Teil! (

DNF.
“I’m stuck up here…..boooorrrrrrring.”

I loved this book the first time a read it, And I loved it even more this reread. The intertwining of storylines, the introduction of new perspectives, the way puzzle pieces fit together perfectly to set up the last book. Cress’s story, though she’s been involved since the first book, is really the story that needed to be included to step up the last book. But not only did it set up the plot lines, but it also set up so much character development giving each character their final motivation for the last story. Simply my favorite in the series. (

Well. It looks like I finally read Cress. After picking up (and surprisingly enjoying) Cinder and Scarlet by Marissa Meyer, I wanted to give her another shot to see if the The Lunar Chronicles continued to impress me. I glanced at the blurb, making it seem intriguing and a book that would suit my tastes. When I closed the final page, it was enjoyable.

It starts with the titular character, Cress, living in a satellite orbiting Earth in the opening pages. She lives there for a while before eventually she has to visit Earth to meet characters from the previous two instalments, Cinder and Scarlet. The opening pages and the middle are slow as usual, but it's typical from the author to do this, and I expected a slow-burn start anyways based on other books I've read from her. The action builds toward the last 200 pages as Cress is told to stop Cinder and Scarlet from forcing Queen Levana to abdicate, but fortunately, the plan does not go as intended. I like most aspects about Cress, but I can't believe I have to wait one more book until the characters put the plan into action. At least the characters were likable. The conclusion finishes Cress on a cliffhanger, with some bonus reading material added afterward, including a sneak peak of Winter. (

Ended up being a DNF for me. It just was too YA. Did something happen between Cinder (I loved) and this one or is it me?
