ARC Envy (8) Cress by Marissa Meyer


Every week several of my favorite bloggers post vlogs or whatever of all the great book hauls they've received for the week. Since I'm a tiny little fish in the huge book blogging pond, my mailbox isn't stuffed with all the great ARCs that they get. Dana's ARC Envy is my way of highlighting an ARC that I *wish* had been sent to me too.

Publisher: Feiwel and Friends by Macmillian (website)(Twitter)
Expected Publication Date: February 4, 2014

Judging a book by its cover:  Not as good as the first two but they were really hard to top.

Know anything about the author?  She does great re-tellings of classic stories - with a twist!

Why do I want it?  This one is a bit of a cheat since I haven't seen anyone with ARCs of this. But since the cover was revealed this week, I'm going with it. I really enjoyed Cinder and Scarlet so I'm looking forward to continuing with the series. 

Summary from Goodreads:


Rapunzel's tower is a satellite. She can't let down her hair - or her guard.

In this third book in the bestselling Lunar Chronicles series, Cinder and Captain Thorne are fugitives on the run, with Scarlet and Wolf in tow. Together, they’re plotting to overthrow Queen Levana and her army.

Their best hope lies with Cress, who has been trapped on a satellite since childhood with only her netscreens as company. All that screen time has made Cress an excellent hacker – unfortunately, she’s just received orders from Levana to track down Cinder and her handsome accomplice.

When a daring rescue goes awry, the group is separated. Cress finally has her freedom, but it comes at a high price. Meanwhile, Queen Levana will let nothing stop her marriage to Emperor Kai. Cress, Scarlet, and Cinder may not have signed up to save the world, but they may be the only ones who can.


What ARC are you envying this week?

    1. I'm really looking forward to this. I think the cover is great but not quite as good as the others. Can't wait to read it though!
