Cinder by Marissa Meyer

Wow! This book is way better than I thought it would be. I bought this book as a bargain book at Books-a-Million because it was cheap and I had heard many good comments about it and I must say I'm glad I did. It was a pleasant surprise to enjoy this book so much and I am thrilled with how it ended. I am ready to pick up the next book. This was a very interesting take on Cinderella. I can't wait to see how Little Red Riding Hood, Repunzel, and Snow White fit into the picture. I will most definitely buy the rest of this series and recommend it to many people.
