Red Queen Book Review


Red Queen Book Review
Hey guys,
So I read the book and I liked it! I truly and honestly found it very interesting. So for those of you who have not read it yet, I will give you a summary and then I want you to get off of here and go read it and then come back!
            Summary
Red Queen is a book by Victoria Aveyard. It is so good and I highly recommend it. Basically, the book is set in the future and it is separated by the color of your blood. So the Red bloods are just normal humans and they are under the rule of the Silver bloods that are people with special powers. Mare is a girl of Red blood and she ends up getting wrapped up in the Silver world and she goes on a very interesting adventure of trust and honesty. So go read it and then come back and see the rest.

             Characters
              Mare: Mare is very interesting in my perspective. She is very smart, but at the same time she can be very clueless. For a majority of the book, she is trying to stay ahead of the whole game. She thinks that she is smart by siding with Maven over Cal, but in the end, she just ends up making the worst decision and figures out that she should have been siding with Cal. I mean, I figured out about halfway through the book that Maven was going to be the person she shouldn’t trust, but even when she found out, she was so surprised. So yeah, she was interesting to me.
             
              Evangeline and the Queen: I don’t really have much to say about Evangeline and the Queen. I mean, the whole time they were pretty much the same. They did not like Mare from the start and they did not like her up until the very end.
              Maven: He ticked me off. I mean, I figured it out about halfway through that he was lying to Mare, but it still ticked me off. I mean he seemed to actually care about her and she obviously trusted him and then he just betrayed her. But his whole reason for betraying her made sense. He was the younger brother that did not get a choice on who he got to marry and had to live in his brother’s shadow. And that never ends well.
              Cal: Cal confused me. I could definitely tell from the beginning that he cared about Mare, but he just did not show it very much and Mare did not show her love for him very much, but in the end they kind of fell in love and I just don’t understand that whole love story.
              Plot
              I kind of really liked the plot of the entire thing.  A society is divided by the color of their  blood, and then out of the blue, one of the red bloods has powers and switches the whole game. However, the game is always switching and everybody has to fend for themselves to figure it out.

I’m so sorry guys, I just got busy, and then I had writer’s block, but I am going to be posting a lot this weekend to hopefully catch up with the game. I think I am going to post a review of the first few episodes of The Royals and then probably update you guys on my recent entertainment obsessions. I might also do a few other things if I can think of them. See you probably tomorrow!

I will never submit again. I will never stop fighting. ~Mare
