A review of “Fire” by Kristin
Cashore
BY MEGAN LENANE
In this
book, the main character Fire lives in a world where beautiful, deceitful
monsters are everywhere. A monster could be any animal from a miniscule insect
to a fierce panther. These monsters have the amazing ability to capture and
control anyone’s mind with their extraordinary beauty. Fire is one of the very
few people that is not affected by these monsters, but it is not because she
knows how to shield her mind from their power; it is merely because she is a
monster herself. The book shows how Fire deals with her power to be
irresistible when young king Nash asks her to assist him and his younger
brother Brigan by reading and controlling captured enemy spies and prisoners’
minds. Fire soon begins to struggle with what she thinks is right and what will
be best for her crumbling country. Cancel your plans because once you start
this book, you won’t want to put it down.
In future America, the government has found a cure
for love. Deeming it a dangerous disease, everyone must have the cure. The main
character, Lena, can’t wait for her cure. That is until she meets mysterious
Alex. Alex shows Lena how to have fun and how to love, making Lena wonder if
society has been lying to them the whole time. When tough decisions make Lena
choose between family and love, Lena makes the ultimate decision that will
change her life forever. This book is a must-read for anyone who loves a
futuristic love story laced with action.
