Cinder by Marissa Meyer

Cinder by Marissa Meyer is probably my favorite book of 2012. While it came out awhile ago and I read the Advance Reader's Edition almost a year ago, I've been recently reminded just how awesome this book is. A student of mine just finished reading this book after I suggested that she might like it. She loved it and cannot wait to read the 2nd installment.

Cinder is the retelling of Cinderella, where Cinder is a cyborg.and lives in New Beijing. She is a second-class citizen and the property of her evil stepmother. There is a also a prince and an evil Queen. Cinder is such an original take on Cinderella that you welcome the original parts and love the new twist and turns.

I've already read Scarlet, the 2nd book in the series and I am soooo HAPPY to say that it's even better than Cinder. Scarlet doesn't come out until February 2013. I cannot wait until book 3 and 4 come out. I haven't been this hard-core in love with a series since The Hunger Games.
