Really liked this book, but it kind of felt like the typical dystopian series.

This book was exactly what I expected it to be and was therefore fabulous! It’s a really easy and predictable read. I am excited to read the rest of the series.

A fast read.

The foreshadowing made the plot twist pretty obvious, but the ending was still somewhat surprising.

I have previously read Powerless, and have heard that it is very similar to Red Queen. I agree, but they are both enjoyable in different ways. If you like one, then you’ll probably like the other. However, Red Queen has less romance and more violence in my opinion. Can’t wait to read the next book. If you like dystopian books with a little bit of trials thrown in then I recommend trying this book out.
