Still reading Cinder

Hello Bookies,

I hope we are all staying safe during this pandemic. I know that we are all eager to have things get back to normal, but I'm still doing my part by staying home. Even if the stay-at-home order has been lifted. I would rather be safe at home then be sorry by spreading this disease. Anyways, you would think that I would have this book done by now, but I don't. I'm still trying to force myself to read this book and not have leave it on the shelf. If the library was open, this would have had to been returned a long time ago.

Honestly, I have no idea where I left. It just feels like I have been reading this book forever at this point. Anyways, from what I can remember our main character is named Cinder and she is a mechanic. Also she is cyborg and they are highly discriminated against in the world. She was adopted by her father who died of a disease that is extremely deadly. But one of her sisters ends up getting the disease and Cinder get volunteered to take part in the experimenting to find a cure. Only problem is that she is immune to the disease because she is Lunar. But she doesn't know this until her second trip to the palace. During this same trip she runs into the prince for like the tenth time, I'm exaggerating, and he asks her to the ball. She rejects him because she knows that it isn't safe and she knows that her being a cyborg would make the prince not like her. Anyways, Cinder goes home and the prince is faced with the death of his father and the sudden visit of the Lunar queen. Which we then learn that Cinder is under protection of a chip to keep her Lunar gifts locked away. Also Cinder knows that the prince is looking for the missing Lunar princess and I think the doctor is slowly realizing who this Lunar princess is. As a reader, I already know who it is and I'm just waiting for the characters to realize this. Other than that, I have nothing else to report. I feel like I did a whole recap on the whole book. Nothing literally happens in this book. It's like reading a Chinese Drama where they drag out everything to the point you want to fast forward, but you don't because you are afraid you are going to be missing something. I'm a little halfway, so I can do it. I can make it to the end. It is just going to take a while.

So until next time...
