Lunar Chronicles Book Report Sample

This month I read the second book of the Lunar Chronicles series, called Scarlet. The theme of this book is perseverance all the 3 main characters in this book are persevering to achieve a goal. Since Cinder escaped prison, Queen Levana started accusing Emperor Kai of his lack of security. She gives Kai 3 days to find Cinder or else Luna will attack Earth (Meyer pg 42- 48). Kai is persevering to find Cinder but it is very hard because she could be anywhere in the whole solar system. Meanwhile, Cinder is trying to continue on her mission to defeat Levana. She is going to Europe to find a woman who will guide her through her journey and knows her secret about being Princess Selene (Meyer pg 182). On this journey Cinder goes through many problems like almost getting caught by Kai’s troops, and she almost killed herself hooking herself into her spaceships auto control system in order to prevent it from crashing (Meyer pg. 183 & 243). Meanwhile, Scarlet is trying to find her grandmother. First she found the location of the kidnappers who had taken her grandmother
I am confused by the fact that Cinder chose to go to Europe in search for a woman instead of going to Dr. Erland. Another question I thought of while reading the book was, why would Scarlet trust a man who used to work with kidnappers, he could be lying to her. This book reminds me of Little Red Riding Hood as they both have similar characters, in both books there is a little girl, a wolf and a grandmother. I love how Meyer’s books are so similar to classic fairy tales but yet they are so different. Myer writes this book in the future where an emperor rules the whole world. A question I have for the Mrs. Meyer is, what made her think of changing the government from a democratic government to a monarchy. Overall I love this book and I can’t wait to finish it. I just hope it isn’t a cliffhanger like the previous book,
