Read the first five chapters of the New York Times bestselling Cinder by Marissa Meyer on Wattpad! Humans and androids crowd the raucous streets of New Beijing. A deadly plague ravages the population. From space, a ruthless lunar people watch, waiting to make their move. No one knows that Earth’s fate hinges on one girl…. Cinder, a gifted mechanic, is a cyborg. She’s a second-class citizen with a mysterious past, reviled by her stepmother and blamed for her stepsister’s illness. But when her life becomes intertwined with the handsome Prince Kai’s, she suddenly finds herself at the center of an intergalactic struggle, and a forbidden attraction. Caught between duty and freedom, loyalty and betrayal, she must uncover secrets about her past in order to protect her world’s future.

Expectations. Success. Failure. These are the factors of what society holds. We each hold a mask close to ourselves in hopes to protect us from the unknown. Of course, not everyone can keep a secret. This book is based on the true story of a friend of mine who is able to see the truth behind everyone. They're able to see what people have experienced and therefore understand why they act the way they do. This book is based on the fact that everybody has a mask to guide ourselves through life, though sometimes that mask just isn't strong enough. Please note that this book is not for the faint-hearted and will mention abuse (including sexual abuse), suicide, trauma and reality experiences.
