BEST IN THE BUNCH
Cinder (Lunar Chronicles, #1)
Cinder by Marissa Meyer
This book was so fresh and original for a fairytale retelling! So far I adore the whole series (all two books of it ;), but the first book really had the wow factor that made it a 5-star read. I can't recommend it (and the series) highly enough!

  2. I really liked Cinder too! I haven't had the chance to read Scarlet yet, though. It's definitely a unique re-telling of Cinderella! :)

  4. I'm definitely going to read Cinder and Scarlet in the future, I've been seeing them all around the blogs for a year now and every time go sort of "Hmm..." and decide to pick them up later. I do love fairy tales, so I'm intrigued.
