Book Club - Cinder by Marissa Meyer

This year on Sundays we are going to hold a book club! You can participate by commenting here on our blog posts or by finding us on facebook! We are going to start with Marissa Meyer's Cinder.

Cinder is the first book in the Lunar Series by Marissa Meyer and it follows a young sixteen year old cyborg. The Lunar Series is a new twice on the old fairy tales that inspired them. Cinder (inspired by Cinderella) is set in "New Beijing" a place were humans and androids crowd the streets and a deadly plaque ravages the population. This catches the attention of the "Lunar People" and they watch, waiting to make their move on Earth and it's people.

Cinder is sixteen-years-old and she is a cyborg. Like Cinderella, this seems to make her a second-class citizen in a world that could crumble any minute. And just like in Cinderella, there's a handsome Prince too. Without giving too much away, Cinder finds herself in the center of an intergalactic struggle and this attraction. Little does anyone know that she may be the key to saving the world.
