wow, that was beautiful. Prince Kai, so dreamy, so charming, what a character. Oh, and he's Asian too, I don't think I've ever read a book (before this one) that involved an Asian prince as the protagonist's maybe-more-than-a-crush. 
 The adrenaline, the tension. So happy for my friend to recommend this for me. I NEED THE SEQUEL. 
 The characters are described so nicely but well, I kind of don't know what Iko looks like :( 
 Cinder is so independent and strong and she's so human. The descriptions that involved the ID cards being put back in made me squirm. For a long time. The author is very good at describing, I got lost in the book, got so disappointed when it ended. 
 I love the world. World building is it called? It is fantastic, the concept is KABOOM amazing. 
 Oh, and I hate Cinder's step-mother, HAHA I even forgot her name.
