Okay, since it seems that even though this blog has been opened up so that the filter at my school won't block it, it is still giving many students problems when they go there. Therefore, I am going to try to put my posts here and on the school website. I'm hoping it will be as easy as copyng and pasting, but we will see.
Cinder was an interesting take on the Cinderella story. I looked forward to reading it, but it took me awhile to really get into it. The story is set in New Beijing during a time where a plague is quickly killing large part of the population. Cinder is considered a second class citizen because she is a cyborg; therefore, she knows it is silly to have a crush on the prince when he comes to her to fix his android. Cinder is one of the best mechanics in New Beijing, and she uses her skill to keep her adopted mother off of her back to some extent. However, when her adopted sister, her only human friend in the world, catches the plague, her cruel adopted mother signs Cinder over to the government for plague research. No cyborg has ever survived the research
