Review: Winter

Winter by Marissa Meyer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I love this series that starts with Cinder, but, man, I felt like this book needs some serious paring down. 827 pages? No way. Could have been 600 or under--easily. I found myself skimming parts of the middle of the book--I wanted to know what happened to the characters, but I felt like some of the action and dialogue kept repeating. With all the characters crammed into this book, it made it harder to get to know them and to believe that their romance was believable.

Fruity Winter was my favorite (I kept picturing River Tam from Firefly), followed by Scarlet. I still love this series, but I couldn't help but think of Allegiantas this plot was playing out.
