I enjoyed reading Meyers, it was like a welcome back home. The book is a tad long, though I feel like every point of the plot was necessary. Though I agree with my sentiments from before that while each of the characters were in danger at different points of the book they were never enough danger to die and that took away the suspense.
The POVs were well done. It was never confusing. I enjoyed listening to it on audiobook.

Let me just say that the Lunar Chronicles has been one of the best series I've read to date.
I've been dying to get my hands on this book as you'll see in this video...

So when I got Winter I just had to dive right on in. I picked it up and was immediately transported back to the Lunar Chronicles universe. This book was everything it needed to be and so much more. I loved seeing all the conflicts the characters had to go through. I love how many OTPs there were in this book. The writing was great, the switched POVs were so well done so it wasn't confusing at all. The ending was everything it needed to be. Queen Levana was an AWESOME villain. She'll be one of my favorites forever I think.
On the downside I must admit that while the characters were in danger at almost every turn. (It seemed like each one got captured by the queen at least once. ) It didn't really feel like they were going to lose or die. (Especially towards the middle end.) I have no other grievances that that.
I will buy any book by Marissa Meyer..
