A review by bookbabe_jazzie
Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard

4.0

This is a world divided by blood - red or silver
This is the book that got me out of my reading slump, and I absolutely loved it.

The reds are commoners who are ruled by the silver elite in the possession of powers. Mare Barrow who lives in the Stilts has to steal in order to survive with her family. Her brothers have been sent off to the Choke (the war) because for the Reds if they do not have a job by the time, they turn 18 they get picked up and sent off. This book is filled with adventure, discovery of oneself, captivity, rebellion, love, and betrayal.
I loved the ups and downs that come in this book along with all the many surprises that come with it. You think that the book is going one way until the end and bam you are looking at the pages like "What did I just read?"
