Marissa Meyer is an American novelist. Her debut novel, Cinder, was released on January 3, 2012. It is the first in her series The Lunar Chronicles.

Meyer was born in Tacoma, Washington, United States and attended Pacific Lutheran University, where she received a degree in creative writing. Before writing Cinder, Meyer worked as a book editor for five years and wrote Sailor Moon fan fiction under the pen name of Alicia Blade. In an interview with The News-Tribune, she said that doing the fan fiction helped her learn the craft of writing, gave her instant feedback and taught her how to take criticism.[1]

Meyer is married to Jesse Taylor.[1] In 2015, she and her husband adopted their twin daughters, Sloane and Delaney.[2]

Meyer states that she was initially inspired to write Cinder after participating in the 2008 National Novel Writing Month contest where she wrote a story focusing on a futuristic version of Puss in Boots.[1] The Lunar Chronicles is a four book series (tetralogy) with volumes based on the stories of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Snow White.[1][3] The first book, Cinder, was a New York Times bestseller.[4]

In 2013 Meyer received a two-book deal from Feiwel & Friends for a young adult series featuring the Queen of Hearts from Alice in Wonderland. The first book, Heartless, was set for a Fall 2016 release. It is a stand-alone novel. Publishers Weekly announced that she would write a superhero series afterward.[5] The resulting book is called Renegades, which was released in the Fall of 2017.

Marissa Meyer is definitely my favorite author. I am really, really, really into her books, although I had only read four of her books, "The Lunar Chronicles" series. I cannot express how much I enjoy her books... "The Lunar Chronicles" has a really interesting plot that can satisfy any readers. To me, it is even more attractive than the series "Harry Potter". That is the reason why I chose "Heartless" as my third independent reading book, after "Thirteen Reasons Why", and "What Light". Its cover is perfectly beautiful, which arouses my expectation of a well-written book. I HIGHLY recommend her books to you guys because I am 100% sure you guys are gonna love it crazily just like me after reading the first book in this series, "Cinder".

- Catherine: She is a pretty lady, who is fond of baking. She is brave, sweet, and willing to risk her life for the ones she loves.
- Jest: He is kinda flirty with me. He knows what are his advantages, and he uses them wisely. I think he is brave, thoughtful, and passionate.
- The King: Seriously, he is silly, and don't like him.

The character makes me feel vexatious most is the King. He is... I don't know, he does not deserve the throne at all, especially with his poor proficiency. He is too injudicious, feckless, and cowardly to rule a country. I cannot imagine how a character like him is able to exist on Earth. Whenever he appears, my patience is being challenged... Believe me, I have to calm myself down every time he did something stupid.
Well, I would say I like the main character, Catherine. She is willing to sacrifice anything for her beloved. She is brave, resolute, and passionate. I must amid at first, I did not like Catherine because I thought she is kinda feeble. But later, I found that I have some kind of connection to her. I empathized with everything she did, every thought she thought of, every feeling she felt. In other words, Catherine is a successfully well-developed character by Marrisa Meyer. I felt like she is almost another version of me. If I was her, I think I would do exactly the same thing.
Another character causes me to think back lots is Jest, the court Joker. I guess he is exactly the kind of guys girls usually find attractive to...? I am not sure about this though, but comparing him with the King (not including the King's throne and wealth), no one would choose the second.
