RAPUNZEL, RAPUNZEL... er I mean Cress ("The Lunar Chronicles: Cress" Part 1)

Ugh I know I'm the slowest reader of all time but I'm FINALLY half way through "Cress" from "The Lunar Chronicles" and boy oh boy am I ready to start discussing. Also blah blah spoilers blah blah blah maybe blah idk.
I LOVE THIS BOOK OMG like this one might be my favorite from the series so far (I've found out it's not a trilogy like I originally thought more on that later). Cress is so adorable and has captured my heart. Behind Cinder, she's my favorite female character. I think I love her so much because she reminds me a lot of the way Rapunzel was portrayed in "Tangled." She's a bit naive and awkward and shy but so smart. Also all of her like internal fangirling and lusting towards Thorin is really adorable and I relate.
I'm glad that Cinder is finally in Africa with Dr. Erland. Maybe now they can get some real shit done. Wolf's fate is kind of in the balance and Scarlet is currently a hostage so I'm a bit worried. I hope their story isn't over so soon.
There was this moment with Kai and his wedding planner that I thought was really sweet. She like told him she's worried about him as a mother would be about her son I was like awwwww I'm glad someone is on his side. Also I want to choke him sometimes because CINDER IS SELENE YOU IDIOT. That's all I really want from this book. By the end, I want Kai to figure out that Cinder is the missing princess and it's okay to love her.
My friend told me recently that the next book in the series is going to center around Levana? and is going to be called "Mirror"????* Now, I love when people play with the ideas of good and evil and sort of blur the lines, making everything not so black and white. I love the way it's done with Regina AKA The Evil Queen in "Once Upon a Time" and what they did with Maleficent in the recent movie. HOWEVER I've grown to hate Levana so much that I don't want to be convinced she's not so bad after all. I don't want to grow any sympathy seeds for her.  She's awful and that's that YOU CAN'T MAKE ME LIKE HER, MARISSA!
In summation: Kelsey like. Kelsey like a lot.

also look how long my hair is oOoOoOoOo am I Rapunzel yet?

* in my copy of "Cress" it says the fourth book is going to be called "Winter" which I'm guessing refers to Princess Winter  idk what's going on
