Wires and Nerve, Volume 1 by Marissa Meyer My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars Wires and Nerve is a continuation of the Lunar Chronicles in graphic novel form - if that doesn't immediately intrigue you, I don't know what will. The events in this book take place after Winter, so if you haven't read the… Continue reading Wires and Nerve, Volume 1 – Marissa Meyer
