We Are the Ants by Shaun David Hutchinson is a moving sci-fi novel about identity, romance, and family. It follows unpopular high schooler Henry Denton struggling to cope after his boyfriend commits suicide. He has supposedly been abducted by aliens his whole life, and they give him an ultimatum: the world is going to end, and he can stop it if he presses a button. However, he can’t decide whether or not to.
Winter, the final book in the Lunar Chronicles, was just as amazing as I expected it would be! In this book, we finally find out all the secrets behind the royal Lunar family and the history of Cinder! We get introduced to one more important character, Winter, who is the princess of Luna who has Lunar sickness (makes her mad/crazy) because she refuses to use her Lunar gift on others.
The Lunar Chronicles does it again! The third book in this series, Cress, did not disappoint any of my expectations.

The story starts out with introducing Scarlet, but then also updates you about Cinder & Captain Thorne’s situation throughout the book, alternating between the stories (which end up getting connected later on).

The main character is Cinder, a cyborg living in a dystopian world where many countries are merged, there are cyborgs, people living on the moon who have mind powers, and a plague called letumosis that’s killing thousands of people on Earth. She is a mechanic who lives with her stepmother & stepsisters. (Just like Cinderella).
