Cinder

I listen to this book in like 2 days so I went through it very quickly. I really like the idea behind the story and it definitely went into some direction that I did not expect. But at the same time, it was painfully predictable. For instance, it because immediately clear that Cinder was Princess Selene after her existence was mentioned. And the fact that it was held off until the end felt wrong since it was so painfully obvious. 

I also just do not enjoy books where characters make such horrible choices and the right decision is so goddamn obvious, like Cinder did on many occasions. She trusts no one, but also has a thing that tells her exactly when people are lying? Come on, stay consistent. Much of the story was hard to listen to for this reason. 

However, I really do like the premise of the story and will definitely be reading the sequel. Something doesn't have to be amazing quality for me to enjoy it.
