Red Queen (Red Queen #1) by Victoria Aveyard







This book was so intense, and I loved every moment of it. I love the topic of superpowers, so I definitely was hooked into the storyline of this book. I had to stay up very late to finish this in one sitting, because I just HAD to know what was going to happen. 

The world building in this book was so interesting. I loved learning about the different supernatural powers and how it related to the class system put in place in this world. This world made me feel like you were in the future and the past at the same time. There were castles, balls, and other regal aspects of this world that I absolutely adored. I cannot wait to learn more about this world and the people in it, because I feel like more of that was needed in this book. What was discussed in this book just made me crave more of this world and what it has in store. 

Mare was the main character, and I really enjoyed her character. She was strong and fierce, but she was also very relatable. She started off as a somewhat weak character, but her character grew into a very strong character that I was rooting for the entire time. Mare made some poor decisions in the book, but most characters do that. Her decisions didn't bother me to a point that I wanted to smack her. Whenever she made her decisions, she did it with her family in mind and that is what made me really admire her character. 

I really enjoyed the two male lead characters, Maven and Cal. They were both romantic and swoon worthy in different ways. Maven was more of the shy and sweet one while Cal was intense and passionate. They were complete opposites, but I found myself really liking both of the characters. I actually would have liked more romance in this book. I found this story had touches of romance, but I was really hoping fore a more better romantic storyline woven throughout the book. I am hoping that there will be more romance in the next book. 


Some of the plot lines were a little predictable, but it did not take away from my enjoyment of the book! I was still completely engrossed by this book. 

THE PLOT TWIST AT THE END WAS SUCH A SHOCKER TO ME! I DID NOT SEE IT COMING AT ALL. I WAS COMPLETELY BLIND SIGHTED.




 I NEED BOOK TWO, BECAUSE I NEED ANSWERS. NOW.
