Really Interesting!

I usually dislike novellas, but this one was interesting in that it gives you a backstory about Levana and why she is the person she is in the Lunar Chronicles. Although I don't care for her character, and found this book to be a little boring in some parts, it was really insightful! I wouldn't say it is a crucial book within the Lunar Chronicles - you could read the series without it.
