Linh PeonyLinh Peony is the youngest of the step-sisters, she is 14. Peony became Cinder's friend at an age when she didn't know about discriminating Cinder because she was a cyborg. Because she got to know Cinder, she kept being Cinder's friend. Peony is the kindest and most oblivious of Cinder's step family. In the book she's described as a pretty girl with chestnut curls in her hair. Sadly, Peony catches Letumosis, the plague, in a junkyard and dies in Cinder's arms a few weeks after she's taken into quarantine. It was refreshing to have one of the step-sisters be nice and I grew quite fond of her. Just after I got that thought Marissa Meyer gave her the plague and it just sort of broke me. From then on the only character I allowed myself to like was Cinder, after all she wouldn't cut her off, right?
