Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard

Book Description


"Mare Barrow's world is divided by blood—those with red and those with silver. Mare and her family are lowly Reds, destined to serve the Silver elite whose supernatural abilities make them nearly gods. Mare steals what she can to help her family survive, but when her best friend is conscripted into the army she gambles everything to win his freedom. A twist of fate leads her to the royal palace itself, where, in front of the king and all his nobles, she discovers a power of her own—an ability she didn't know she had. Except . . . her blood is Red.

 To hide this impossibility, the king forces her into the role of a lost Silver princess and betroths her to one of his own sons. As Mare is drawn further into the Silver world, she risks her new position to aid the Scarlet Guard—the leaders of a Red rebellion. Her actions put into motion a deadly and violent dance, pitting prince against prince—and Mare against her own heart.

 From debut author Victoria Aveyard comes a lush, vivid fantasy series where loyalty and desire can tear you apart and the only certainty is betrayal."

Why I'm Waiting:

You guys know I love a badass female character, and Mare sounds incredible. 


Red Queen also hits all of my literary buttons: fantasy, historical, royal, supernatural abilities! I'm so excited to read this one!

    That cover alone looks amazing! A world where you're divided by the color of blood just sounds crazy but very interesting. I can't wait either :)

    I know! It's hard. I always stop the urge by reminding myself that I would have nobody to talk to about it.... but, if we both gave in and read it... that could solve that little problem. ;) Thanks for stopping by, Alicia!

    I don't mind love triangles if they are well done and have a point and real tension. I get super annoyed when an extra love interest is thrown in for no damn good reason though. I hope if there is one, it is of the first variety! :)
