![]() ![]() ![]() I don't really understand the people who think cyborgs are robots and not humans, but that's another story).Ĭinder wasn't always a cyborg. But even without our discussion, I feel that by the end of CINDER, I still would have understood because Meyer deftly showcases what makes Cinder cyborg and what makes her human (because she IS both. I had to have one of my co-workers explain the difference between a cyborg and a robot to me. But the idea of a space opera quartet revolving around four fairy tales from the fantastically talented Marissa Meyer? I knew she wouldn't steer me wrong, and I'm happy to say that she didn't! I'll be honest: Going into CINDER, the only thing I knew about cyborgs was the fact that there was a character in the animated TV series TEEN TITANS named Cyborg. Science Fiction has never really been my thing when it comes to outer space, though I've always been fascinated by the moon. The only truly "sci-fi" (to me, this reads "spacey") books I own are ACROSS THE UNIVERSE by Beth Revis ( review here) and various ENDER books by Orson Scott Card. ^.~īefore CINDER, the only brush I had with a futuristic fairy tale was Anna Sheehan's A LONG, LONG SLEEP ( reviewed here). I did, however, try to be as impartial as possible when reading and reviewing the book, so this review is based on the book's merits and not my love-fest revolving around Marissa Meyer. I'll admit it now (and you all know it anyway): I'm biased when it comes to CINDER. ![]()
