I've finished Scarlet and I'm partway through Cress, but had to set it aside for some review books I needed to get to.

I don't think that is even that big in the story. There are some androids and cyborgs but it's not a huge plot point.

I have bought it myself and it is waiting on one of my shelves just begging to be picked up, but I simply can't bring myself to. I don't know what's keeping me from it. Probably the whole sci-fi concept? I hope to be able to warm up to the story, though. I simply might have to read a few other books before committing to this one.KarolinasBRhttp://bookshelfreflections.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5507186203094106045.post-14630590841734472492014-04-24T03:34:52.334-06:002014-04-24T03:34:52.334-06:00It's from both of their POVs!

Unfortunately, I have tried both reading it and listening to it on audio, and whilst the audio was certainly looking better, I didn't make it far into the second disc (over an hour of listening) when I decided it wasn't for me. The plot is great and the world, the world is so vivid! but... it just didn't click, and sadly it seems this series isn't for me. Still, I like seeing others clear enjoyment of it!Romi.http://wherethewritercomestowrite.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.com
