Cinder by Marissa Meyer
In a twist on the Cinderella
story, Cinder is a girl living in a future 100 years after the Fourth World
War. She lives with her guardian and her two daughters, helping to support the
family as a mechanic. And she's a cyborg. Part human, part machine, Cinder
tries to disguise what she is, and that's where she runs into trouble. When
Prince Kai drops off his droid for repairs, Cinder is instantly attracted to
him. But what will happen when the prince finds out she's really a cyborg? And
that there are other secrets she is hiding as well? In a backdrop of a world in
the middle of a pandemic and kept apart by evil forces, will their love
triumph?
Scarlet by Marissa Meyer
Book two, Scarlet, introduces us to characters similar to those in Red
Riding Hood. Scarlet and Wolf must try to save Scarlet’s grandmother from the
wolves, but Wolf is hiding more than he is telling. When they cross paths with
Cinder, who is on the run from everyone, Scarlet and Cinder must form an
alliance to escape Queen Levana and her army. Both books have plenty of action,
witty dialogue, and fascinating characters.
