Goodreads Summary: The fates of Cinder and Scarlet collide as a Lunar threat spreads across the Earth...

Cinder, the cyborg mechanic, returns in the second thrilling installment of the bestselling Lunar Chronicles. She's trying to break out of prison—even though if she succeeds, she'll be the Commonwealth's most wanted fugitive.

Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit's grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn't know about her grandmother or the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother's whereabouts, she is loath to trust this stranger, but is inexplicably drawn to him, and he to her. As Scarlet and Wolf unravel one mystery, they encounter another when they meet Cinder. Now, all of them must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen Levana, who will do anything for the handsome Prince Kai to become her husband, her king, her prisoner.

Cindy's Review: I read this book like more than a month ago, so honestly, I might forget some stuff about the book. Why am I reviewing so late then? Ummm. Because being lazy me, I haven't reviewed my books. I really have this big stack just for reviewing and I don't even review ALL books I read. (Like the ones I speed-read too much so I don't know what's going on). Yeah. I'm such a bad bloger. LOL.

The Cover:

So like I pre-ordered this book for my friend and it arrived at my house. It was gorgeous. I love new books. All new and non-damaged. And my friend let me read it first,;) since I helped her order it. 

The Characters/Plot: 

If I'm not mistaken (due to my bad memory {and I'm not even old yet} ) there are two pov's. One, Cinder's from Cinder. And two, the new girl Scarlet from Scarlet. The two main characters start off really far away from each other and then they get closer and closer. Soon, they get to meet and find out how they are connected to each other. 

Cinder - Her name is so close to mine. ;D I always loved her character, even though she's a cyborg. Honestly, she seems totally human to me. So in Scarlet, Cinder had just broken out of prison with her prison cell mate, Captain Thorn (more about him later) and they're running away on this flying ship thing. Or spaceship. Like the ones aliens ride in (at least in my imagination). Cinder's goal is to find Scarlet's grandma, because someone Scarlet's grandma knows about Cinder and had something to do with Cinder coming to Earth.

Scarlet - Scarlet on the other hand, lives with her grandma, but somehow her grandma goes missing. Her grandma had been missing for two weeks and her frantic search for her grandma led her to discovering something maybe more important. Scarlet meets Wolf who helps her along the adventure on finding the secret her grandma knows.

Wolf - Honestly Wolf kind of sounds hot. Although he's not my type of guy and I would never drool over him, I think he's hot for Scarlet. ;) I dunno how old he is. (Or at least I forgot) but I really hope he's young. (Because the younger they are, or at least to my age, the hotter they are. But they can't be younger than 15 or they're not hot. Just not over 22 or something unless the author's really good at making them hot) ;D Wolf is like this secret agent type of person who knows things but won't tell. Like Zach from Ally Carter's Gallagher Girls series. He's hot. ;) Okay. I connect like all different kinds of books together, even when they're sooo different. LOL. 

Captain Thorn - So like even though to me, Thorn isn't really a main character, I guess he was pretty helpful to Cinder. I think he's like this perverty, kiddish, weirdish, crazish guy who likes Cinder. Honestly somehow my friend thinks he is hot and he could be a perfect candidate for the Kai-Cinder-(Thorn) love-triangle. I'm just like ewww... no. But I guess, different point of views from everyone. Although I don't think Thorn suits Cinder, I think Thorn would be this really fun person to be around cuz he's actually kind of funny: "Do we have a thing going on?" Omg. Thorn. Haha.

The Extras:

Weeeee, after I explain so much about characters I get tired of explaining plots. LOl. You can go read the Goodreads one, cuz yet again lazy me came. Hey. This is like my fourth review in a row. Sucks for me cuz I save everything for the weekend. Cuz I have school and all those dramatic life stuff for college blah blah blah and pograms to go to. Ewww... AND no time to read!!! Okay. Yeah. One reason why I have a stacked up to-be-reviewed-stack of books. 

Rating: (1-10): 9.2

Happy Reading~
