Cress by Marissa Meyer

Cress by Marissa Meyer

about the book

Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together they're plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army.
Their best hope lies with Cress, who has been trapped on a satellite since childhood with only her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker; unfortunately, she's just received orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice.
When a daring rescue goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing stop her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only ones who can.

my thoughts about the book.

(may contain spoilers)

1. Did you get lost in the book? Yes I did. That is when my daughter wasnt trying to get my attention lol.

2. Was the character development intriguing? Yes it was.  It was a wonderful see how Cress when to a shy girl to a strong young woman.

3. Did you care about the characters?  Yes I did. When Scarlet got kidnapped I almost started crying and then I almost started crying when Wolf found out what happened to Scarlet.

4. What is your favorite quote from the book? "Try to find something that makes you happy. Your life is not going to to get easier once Queen Levana is your wife. If you had even one small thing that brought  you happiness, or hope that things could someday be better, then maybe that would be enough to sustain you. Otherwise, I fear it will be too easy for the queen to win."

5. Why was it your favorite quote? Because it shows that the Emperor Kai is struggling with his daily life and what is to become. Also it can be a good quote to remember at all times to use in your own daily life. As we all have struggles that we go thru.

6. Was there anything you disliked about the book? No, there was nothing I disliked about this book.

7. Were you engaged immediately, or did it take you a while to "get into it"?  Yes, I was immediately engaged. I couldn't wait to learn more about Cress and what happens with Cinder and her friends.

8. Would you recommend this book to others? Yes why Yes I would recommend this book to others. I am recommending to all you readers out there to go and pick this book up and read it.

9. Is there a lot of material in the book that would not be good for kids to ? If you do not want your kids to read books with fighting then this is not a book for them to read. As it does have fighting in it.


10.  Where did you buy it at? I bought it at Target. But you can purchase it from Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and also at ibooks.

I hope you all have enjoyed this book review. Please keep a check on others that I hope to do this year.

Happy Reading
