baronessekat | 2016 Reading Challenge: "A book over 600 pages"

Winter by Marissa Meyer

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

What a fun and exciting ending to the Lunar Chronicles quadrilogy. I really enjoyed this installment and how it brought in the story of Snow White to the series.

I liked how we finally get a glimpse into what it's like to be a part of the Lunar kingdom and how there is such a huge dichotomy between the classes. I do admit that I felt a certain flash to The Hunger Games as far as the description of the Lunar Elite and the Elite in the Capital District of The Hungar Games, but I also recognize the fact that there are really only so many ways you can write ways to show how different it is between the Haves and Have-nots, and especially in YA books.

That being said, I thought the action was very well paced and the entire story moved and it was hard to think that this book was almost 900 pages (or 23.5 hours of audiobook). I found myself trying to find opportunities to get back to this book to see what was happening next.

Overall this is a series I highly recommend.
