A bit like Harry Potter or Percy Jackson.<br /><br />Cinder's is said fairly often in the book, but you might not have recognised it as her last name because it was written Asian style i.e. last name first "Linh Cinder" :PNarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09378806643397167349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3365200445147197440.post-51981937839215904152013-09-17T03:06:24.372+09:302013-09-17T03:06:24.372+09:306/20.

(It's waters isn't it?!). I'm pretty pissed that I don't know Cinder's though. I think the more unique the first name is, the less likely I am to remember the last. <br /><br />This is sooo much fun though!
