honestly i loved this book. I enjoyed reading all of the backstories/side stories, except for “the little android”, i didn’t really understand why it was relevant or necessary, but i didn’t absolutely hate it either. 
on the other hand, the last two stories were SO CUTE. i am so happy that we got to see kai’s point of view of when he met cinder and i thought that story was just so adorable. the last story too- that was such a good ending to the series and it was definitely my favorite story out of all of them
