Levana is the villain of The Lunar Chronicles. However, something changes in this novel and readers sort of feel for her even though we definitely didn't want to.  Meyer puts her through so much; you can't help but realize that this is why she hates everything.  I would have loved more side stories but I do understand that this is supposed to be all about Levana-- it definitely is just that.  Evert was adorable and the ending just killed me.  I sort of expected it.  Plus, while I impatiently wait for Winter to release, we got a glimpse of the protagonist from the upcoming book.  I am so excited to read the next one in the series.  As a novella, and part of the series, this book is definitely worth reading!
