![]() ![]() ![]() She was in an accident when she was 11, and the only way to save her was to make her a cyborg, which, by law, makes her the property of her stepmother. And I really wish I hadn't waited so long Cinder was bloody amazing!Ĭinder is a mechanic in New Beijing, and all of her earnings go straight to her lazy stepmother. But as I set up the Retelling Reading Challenge 2016 for the sole purpose of finally getting down to reading these books. This series has been raved about far and wide, but I'm not a huge fan of sci-fi, and a retelling of Cinderella where she's a cyborg mechanic. I've had a proof copy of Cinder by Marissa Meyer since before it was published, and although it sounded really interesting, it's taken me until now to read it. From Goodreads.ĮTA: Since reading the book, I have discovered that Cinder is problematic when it comes to setting and the lack of or incorrect Asian culture through reading other posts, and therefore - although I haven't changed my review for the purposes of transparency - I can no longer recommend this book or series. But when her life becomes entwined with the handsome Prince Kai's, she finds herself at the centre of a violent struggle between the desires of an evil queen - and a dangerous temptation. She's reviled by her stepmother and blamed for her stepsister's sudden illness. Cinder by Marissa Meyer (proof) - Cinder, a gifted mechanic in New Beijing, is also a cyborg. ![]()
