I loved choose your own adventure books as a kid. To this day I wish I had kept them. My dad was great on getting me books where you were just a kid wandering in a forest and somehow got yanked into a different dimension. I also died every single time. Apparently I made poor choices as a kid. This choose your adventure starring Cinder from the Lunar Chronicles is so cool.
“Cinder’s Adventure: Get Me to the Wedding!” follows Cinder who is about to marry Emperor Kai. But then you are given a choice. You can follow Iko (to a world that will be familiar to readers of “Heartless”) or you can open a knock at the door (which takes you off to a setting that readers may know..I did not).
Be warned that you should probably read all of the Lunar Chronicles books. I also read the graphic novels. But you also should read some of Meyer’s other works such as “Heartless” “Renegades” trilogy, “Instant Karma”, and “Gilded.” I DNFed the first book in Renegades and never read “Gilded” or “Instant Karma” but that did not take away my enjoyment of this book.
I played through 5 times and got to the wedding twice (and loved, loved, loved the sneak peek into the future I got). The other three times had Cinder coming to a different ending (no spoilers). One was quite….violent. LOL. But yes I get that not all stories have a happy ending.
This was a very fun book and I enjoyed it. I still would have been quite happy with a straight happy ending for Cinder and Kai, but it was lovely seeing everyone again.
