Good but...
The reading of this book is amazing. The story on the whole is good but at times they fixate on weird point and it comes up again and again. It is a perfect book for a teenager or an easy listen. Not bad but with a bit more could have been great. Still worth a listen.

Interesting concept but needed better editing
I liked the concept but the main character is far too self absorbed and the plot twists are far too obvious.
The narrator does well to bring out the positives in the main character but her accents are cringeworthy and I am left feeling that this book could have been so much better.

I liked this book, it was nicely fast paced and the interesting concepts. Modern or even futuristic spin on Cinderella tale , I'd be intrigued to see what's next for Cinder et al.

Excellent return to Cinderella, but with a twist
Never has Cinder(ella) been such a badass. Not in any book that I've ever read anyway.
A cyborg with mad mechanical genius, she was a refreshing move away from the modern daintiness often reserved for female characters in retellings and reimaginings as people struggle to avoid the usual damsel in distress tropes. Her stepmother was the perfect blend of selfishness and blasé cruelty, and her stepsisters... well, they both broke my hearts in different ways. Her Prince Charming? I loved Kai on so many levels. He was unproblematic; caring and interested, without being overbearing or overwhelming.
The Lunars gave a whole new element to the story and they were mesmerising in their own, devious way throughout.
I loved this story, and I only wish I'd read it sooner.

I’ve read this before and I loved hearing it now as much as I read it then. It’s my favorite series. Rebecca Soler does an amazing job with reading it and the accents she puts on for the different characters never fail to make me all that much more interested in what’s happening.
Brilliant. 👌🏻👌🏻

Predictable but with an unfinished ending
If your happy to work your way through the long series go for it but I for one will not be doing so.
I was expecting a more contained story for each fairytale chariot per book. rather than introducing one, allowing another to pop up for a few lines, then just the story just stops, just as things start picking up pace. Very frustrating!
The predictability of the storyline and chariot development sits on the line of comfort/not having the think to hard and frustration. If another book comes up in a sale Ill give it a try but won't waist a credit/ pay full price for any of them.
A really interesting concept and as a teen-read its ok but could have been so much better as a stand alone book within a series.

Predictable but fun
For a long time I wasn’t keen on reading this book (as I’m not a sci-fi fan) but I had read so many good reviews on the Lunar Chronicles that I decided to give it a try. At first the book was hard to get into but after 2 hours of listening, I was sold. The narrator did an amazing job with the characters especially Iko. I really liked the protagonist “Cinder” and root for her enough to follow her story in the sequel.
