Synopsis
Cinder is back and trying to break out of prison—even though she’ll be the Commonwealth’s most wanted fugitive if she does—in this second installment from Marissa Meyer.
Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit’s grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn’t know about her grandmother, or the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother’s whereabouts, she is loath to trust this stranger, but is inexplicably drawn to him, and he to her. As Scarlet and Wolf unravel one mystery, they encounter another when they meet Cinder. Now, all of them must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen Levana.

February 2015 in Review
It is so hard to believe it is the end of February already. This has been a crazy month.
Things that Happened in February
- Lent started with Ash Wednesday the beginning of the month.
- I got the nasty cold thing going around the school. I have to remember to thank my students for that one.
- We had this really great false spring with temperatures in the 60s (Farenheit) and then we were down to the negatives again.
- I left town twice this month! This is pretty big when the closest other places are 2+ hours away and there is a lot of snow on the ground.
- I spent a great deal of time with my head in a book and I am perfectly okay with that.
