I'm about to start this book is anyone else reading it?

lol I finished it last week, I really liked it

Awsome I'm going to start it tonight I can't wait!

I've only read the first 3 chapters but it's a good read so far. Cinder's older stepsister is mean but seems like her younger one is nice enough.

yeah peony is really sweet

I just got to the part where she's in the lab and they are doing the experiment. Very interesting that all the "green dots" disapear inside Cinder. She's really freaking out they told her she would get the disease and then they would give her the latest cure next thing she knows they are disconnecting her and bringing her to a room without ever having given her the cure and not telling her what is going on at all!!! I would be so freaked out if anything like that happened to me espcially when it comes to doctors visits. I always like to know what's going on when I'm at the doctors.

hehehe I was like this when I was reading it too! you haven't even got to the good parts yet!

wow as it is I'm having a hard time putting this book down and you say I haven't even gotten to the good parts yet. Yikes!!!

This is not a book I would have usually picked for myself, but once I started reading it, I really enjoyed it. It was a quick, entertaining read. I really enjoyed the cyber Cinderella theme.

mm hmm!
I was like whoa! when I read the blurb, I mean why didn't anyone think about this, afterall this time you know, its a very nice read though
you are in in for a shock Rebecca!

So far so good. I'm about 200 pages in at this point. This is another book that has just reached out and grabbed me...I know that it is loosely based on a fairytale but it's turning out to be soooo much more than that little old fairy tale!
Anyway... the Queen of Lunar has just arrived and Cinder has just gotten the robot that the prince asked her to fix running. I'm getting a feeling that Cinder may be more important than she knows and maybe the doctor is up to something he lies too easily and had too much information on the i.d. chips that were being removed from all the dying people.

lol well done, getting there!

This book is great! Peony has just died and Cinder's stepmother has just sent the police after her because she didn't answer her comm. I can't believe that just as Cinder gets the possible antidote to Peony she dies! So sad!!!

Finished the book yesterday and am half way through "Scarlet". It turned out to be quite an entertaining read, though I prefer Neil Gaiman's take on fairytales more - if you have a chance to read his short story collections Smoke and Mirrors, also Fragile Things then you might like his grown-up adaptation of Snow White, Three Billy Goats Gruffy as well as the Holy Grale legend.
If you need the pre-stories for both novels, then go to Tor.com where you can find "Glitches" and "The Queens Army" - two short stories as lead-ins showing Cinders first weeks at her new new family with Peony, Garan and others and Ze'ev's initionation into the Queen's army.
All-in-all would recommend the book to anyone looking for a captivating one-night read with the familiarity of childhood fairytales and a bit of teenage romance.
