Review: Winter by Marissa Meyer

Winter by Marissa Meyer

Published November 10th 2015

Princess Winter is admired by the Lunar people for her grace and kindness, and despite the scars that mar her face, her beauty is said to be even more breathtaking than that of her stepmother, Queen Levana.

Winter despises her stepmother, and knows Levana won’t approve of her feelings for her childhood friend—the handsome palace guard, Jacin. But Winter isn’t as weak as Levana believes her to be and she’s been undermining her stepmother’s wishes for years. Together with the cyborg mechanic, Cinder, and her allies, Winter might even have the power to launch a revolution and win a war that’s been raging for far too long.

I’M NOT READY TO SAY GOODBYE TO THIS SERIES.

I love this series so much. It’s so well written and imaginative. I love how each book brings in a new main character and show cases a different female character. Cinder’s squad grows with each book and the character development is amazing with every character.
There was a ton of things going on in this book and at times I felt a little overwhelmed with all the perspectives and settings. If I had to rank all the books in this series, Winter would probably be last just because I felt like this book was distinctively different from the others. Maybe because it was so long, maybe it was a lot more serious than the others. It’s definitely not the worst in the series, but it’s not my personal favorite.
I did love how everything ended. I didn’t think there was any holes or loose ends.

Overall, I loved this book so much and I’m so sad to see the end of this amazing series. I loved every second that I spent reading this series and I can’t wait to reread all the books soon.
