Review: Cinder – Lunar Chronicles
I love that this is a fairy tale retelling, complete with cruel stepmother and stepsisters, dead father, but set in a future dystopian world. Cinder is a cyborg, meaning she is missing her foot and hand, and has implants all over her body. In this world she is a disposable citizen, made more so because of the plague that ravages the world.
