Book Review: Fairest by Marissa Meyer

Have you ever had that love/hate relationship with a book?? Expect that with "Fairest," the newest installment in the Lunar Chronicles series by Marissa Meyer. Readers are finally given the chance to get to know Levana, the evil Queen of Luna, and understand what past experiences have shaped her. Meyer does a great job in just the first two pages of the story making readers feel sorry for Levana, almost making them forget what they know from the previous 3 books in the series: she tried to kill her young niece in order to maintain her hold on Luna's throne. Readers quickly get over their sympathy as they witness Levana's continual horrendous actions, leaving them with the question of "how can one person be so horrible?" at the story's conclusion.
