I was so engrossed in this book. I was reading so fast my optical nerves were burning. So I can't offer an intellectual or thoughtful review. Once again, "I cannot heave my heart into my mouth" (to quote Cordelia of KING LEAR). Seriously, just read this book! (And all books that come before.)

Great audiobook!

What can I say really? I enjoyed this book. I was overall a bit bleh about it but I probably ended up reading this whole thing in a week so what does that tell you?

I thought it was a really good continuation of the story and I've got to say the way the characters are written is SO GOOD. I love all of them. If I was describing a painter I would say their skill is so good that you feel like you are in the painting, that you have a presence in it. Thats what it feels like to me, when I read this book. Like these characters really matter to me and their troubles are my troubles too. That would probably explain why I was all consumed by this story... Anyway with that said the only reason that I overall feel bleh about it is because I was worried for them the entire time as the stakes were really high the entire book. But I think the fact that I cared so much says more about marissa meyer's skills than it does about me lol. If you enjoyed the other books you'll enjoy this.

This book was GREAT!!! Once I had time, I couldn't stop reading!! But I am still upset that I have to wait for another book to continue the story. I am on pins and needles waiting to see who we bring into the next book. Cinderella and Prince Charming, Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf, Rapunzel and her Prince. Have we already met Snow White and her Prince in Princess Winter and Jacin Clay??? I CAN'T WAIT!!!

I love this series. I love how Marissa Meyer managed to have all these tales come together and FIT in one same plot. It’s so well written, well balanced.

What drives me crazy is the fact this series seems to never end haha. I knew about Winter but I just found out about Wires and Nerve. Anyway, can’t wait to get my hands on Winter.
