Cinder's fingers twitched, a familiar taste of rebellion. She ached to toss of her glamour,
to yell and scream, to force Adri to see her, the real her, just once. Not the ungrateful,
self-important little girl that Adri thought she was, but the orphan who had always
just wanted a family, who had only wanted to belong somewhere.
But even as she thought this, a darker yearning climbed up her spine. She wanted Adri to be sorry. For how she had treated Cinder like a piece of property. For how she had taken Cinder's prosthetic foot and forced her to hobble around like a broken doll. For how she had taunted Cinder again and again for her inability to cry, her inability to love, her inability to ever be human.

Yeah. I want Adri to pay too. Such an awful person. Ack.
Huge thank you to Marissa Meyer and Macmillan Kids for letting me share these gorgeous Cress Tuesday teasers with you all. <3 They are the bestest. Thank you so much. I hope you are all loving the teasers :D I know that I am loving finding them and sharing them with you all. If you haven’t yet read Cress, I hope these teasers are making you more excited about it. <3 I’m sharing all these teasers from my stunning hardcover of Cress. Well, from one of my copies. I might be owning a whole bunch of them :D
My review of The Little Android. My review of Glitches. My review of The Queen's Army.
Cinder. Scarlet. Cress. Winter. Fairest. Glitches. The Queen's Army. The Little Android.
Cinder. Scarlet. Cress. Winter. Fairest. Glitches. The Queen's Army. The Little Android.
14 days until Winter.
I can't believe that you won't be sharing any more teasers with us soon Carina, I have loved all the ones you have shared so far, more so because I still need to read this book. Don't worry I plan on binge reading them before Winter is released!
ReplyDeleteI can totally agree with Cinder (and you) here too! Adri really was an awful person!!
ReplyDeleteI only ever read cinder (I loved it) but never got around to reading the others. I'm sure once winter is finally out I'll catch up :)
