To Mare Barrow, a 17-year-old Red girl from The Stilts, it looks like nothing will ever change.
Mare finds herself working in the Silver Palace, at the centre of those she hates the most. She quickly discovers that, despite her red blood, she possesses a deadly power of her own. One that threatens to destroy Silver control. But power is a dangerous game. And in this world divided by blood, who will win?

Right? And thank you! :D
DeleteI have this grand feeling that you'll love Red Queen very much, Ariel ;) I read it not too long ago, and while I didn't give it 5 stars, it was still very very good with a writing akin to Marie Rutkoski (if you are familiar with her and her book, "The Winner's Curse"). I can't wait to see what you think of it :D

Eep! I really liked the Winner's Curse! Admittedly not as much as everyone else, but this makes me really excited! :D
DeleteThe cover of this is so awesome! I'm definitely really looking forward to digging into it as well! Hopefully we both enjoy it :D
ReplyDeleteThis is probably one of my favorite 2015 release covers. I don't know why I like it so much, but I just do! Hahah.
