Question: Fairy Tales + Sci-Fi = ? 
 Answer: A series you don't want to miss! 
 I first came across Marissa Meyer's books when researching sci-fi Little Red Riding Hood adaptations (it's a long story). One of the only stories that came up in my online searches was this book. When my professor said the novel was too long for the purposes of our English Literature class assignment, I put it aside and promised myself I would read it this summer. When I finally borrowed the first two books in the series, I quickly devoured them, staying up late into the night to finish them. 
 From the Brothers Grimm to Walt Disney, fairy tale adaptations have been popular for years and most recently, popular in Young Adult fiction. The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer has been one of the most unique fairy tale adaptation series I've read and boasts twists to familiar stories, thorough world-building and three dimensional characters.
