Cress Book Review

Book: Cress
Author: Marissa Meyer
Pages: 550
Start Reading Date: April 28th 2020
End Reading Date: May 18th 2020
My Goodreads Rating: 2*



First Thoughts
Again just like the other two books I own in the Lunar Chronicles it’s been about 3 years since I’ve read it. And according to my GoodReads I didn’t enjoy it as I gave it 2*.  
Looking at the dates, and how many pages I read it seems like it took me ten months and I didn’t even finish the book because when I went to up date the pages I have read I was at 350 pages which is 200 pages short of finishing the book. 


While Reading

* It is a little bit of a struggle to keep up with what’s going on. Because I’m still in the early pages of the book I have to keep remembering that I’m reading Cress’s book, that Cinder and Scarlet have met and are together in the ship. 

* I am really struggling with this book. It’s not that it’s a bad book, it’s just really difficult to get into trying to remember why everyone is split up and stuff. 


* I am getting to the point where I’m 200 pages in and just want to give up and wondering how before I got to 350 pages. 

* Just out if interest I looked up how many pages the next book has. Are you actually serious. 

* I am now at the point where I wanna give up. By this point in reading a book I’m almost done. 

Conclusion 

Why is the book so long? When I got to about chapter 25/26 and I wasn’t half way through the book I 100% just started to feel like the book would last forever. So for me the best thing was to skim read the rest of the book. I had the same feeling with the book as I did with Breaking Dawn in the twilight saga. I did read the last few chapters where Cinder had kidnapped Kai, and felt that was honestly the best part of the book and why it got a rating of 2* rather than one.
