Stars Above by Marissa Meyer Breakdown Review

I decided to do a post about my breakdown of Stars Above by Marissa Meyer. There is 8 different novellas in this bind-up, so I'm going to write out my star rating and review of each novella! The new novellas written exclusively for Stars Above were very short compared to the already written ones, so they have shorter reviews.

The Keeper: I loved getting to see Michelle's perspective on Cinder coming to be in her care. 5/5 stars

Glitches: I loved getting to see Cinder meeting her step-family. I could easily picture the whole thing, and felt pretty bad for her sisters and mom towards the end. However, I still hate her step-mother. 5/5 stars

The Queen's Army: I loved this glimpse into how Ze'ev was chosen and trained to become the ruthless soldier we first met. This was very interesting! 5/5 stars.

Carswell's Guide To Being Lucky: This was a very cute glimpse into Carswell as a teen. I really enjoyed this, but honestly would have preferred seeing him getting the ship instead. This was still awesome though. 5/5 stars

After Sunshine Passes By: I felt so bad for Cress while reading this one. It was really nice to see what had happened to her though. 5/5 stars.

The Princess and The Guard: This story made me hate Levana even more than I already did. It was a great story and made me understand what Winter went through under Levana's care even more. 5/5 stars

The Little Android: This was a retelling that, while I felt wasn't very needed, was still incredibly interesting! It was very well written, as is expected when Marissa Meyer does a retelling! 5/5 stars.

The Mechanic: I really liked getting to see Cinder and Kai's first meeting from Kai's POV! 5/5 stars

Something Old, Something New: THE WEDDING!!! OMG!!! It was definitely not the wedding I was expecting that we were going to get, but it was awesome! I was very happy after reading it, and having everything come together. Amazing epilogue to The Lunar Chronicles! 5/5 stars.

So obviously, I rated Stars Above 5/5 stars!

Now can we please talk about THE GRAPHIC NOVEL THAT WAS ANNOUNCED???? I'm so excited for that to come out, and get something in Iko's POV!! I think it's going to be amazing, and I'm highly anticipating the release!
