Cress

Reading Cress feels like having a great adventure. There's so much going on in this book. By the time I reached the end, I felt like the plot has moved far, far away from where it was at the start of the book. It's a really engaging read, and the characters have grown so much since the beginning of the series.Cress and Thorne are probably my favorite couple so far. I loved Thorne in [b:Scarlet 13206760 Scarlet (The Lunar Chronicles, #2) Marissa Meyer https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1342485529s/13206760.jpg 18390691], and even more so after the epic journey he shared with Cress through the desert. As for Cress herself, I didn't expect to like her because naïve characters tend to annoy me if not nicely handled... but in the end, I liked Cress just fine. She's cute, and her romantic fantasies are adorable.Also, we get to see Princess Winter in this book. Along with her childhood friend and love interest Jacin, who temporarily joined Cinder on the Rampion. While we don't get to learn that much about them, I loved what we've seen from them so far. Jacin is so rude and sarcastic it's hilarious at times, while Winter is... interesting.Cinder and Kai finally have more time together towards the end of the book. At first my opinion of Kai hasn't really improved since he was being awfully doubtful and judgmental towards Cinder, but he does get better so I find myself liking him a bit more. Or maybe I'm just happy that my wish for Cinder to kidnap Kai finally came true.While I still have [b:Fairest 22489107 Fairest (The Lunar Chronicles, #3.5) Marissa Meyer https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1402940130s/22489107.jpg 41928590] to read, I'm really looking forward to [b:Winter 13206900 Winter (The Lunar Chronicles, #4) Marissa Meyer https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1426654088s/13206900.jpg 18390887]. Can't wait to see how she's going to deal with Scarlet's feisty temper too. :'D
