A #1 New York Times BestsellerRed Queen (Book 1)Graceling meets The Selection in debut novelist Victoria Aveyard's sweeping tale of seventeen-year-old Mare, a common girl whose once-latent magical power draws her into the dangerous intrigue of the king's palace. Will her power save her or condemn her?

Red Queen

Red Queen, by #1 New York Times bestselling author Victoria Aveyard, is a sweeping tale of power, intrigue, and betrayal, perfect for fans of George R.R. Martin’s Game of Thrones series.

Mare Barrow’s world is divided by blood—those with common, Red blood serve the Silver-blooded elite, who are gifted with superhuman abilities. Mare is a Red, scraping by as a thief in a poor, rural village, until a twist of fate throws her in front of the Silver court. Before the king, princes, and all the nobles, she discovers she has an ability of her own.

To cover up this impossibility, the king forces her to play the role of a lost Silver princess and betroths her to one of his own sons. As Mare is drawn further into the Silver world, she risks everything and uses her new position to help the Scarlet Guard—a growing Red rebellion—even as her heart tugs her in an impossible direction.

One wrong move can lead to her death, but in the dangerous game she plays, the only certainty is betrayal.

4,5⭐️<br />Was pretty captivated by this book, it's a lot like powerless so if you liked powerless and haven't already read this I definitely think u should!!! Love the whole good and bad brother trope and the plot twist u hot at the end was absolutely amazing. My heart really aces for Cal, he is perfect in all the ways he could be. She writes him in a way that makes you love even his flaws😍

I loved this book, only book I’ve read where I’ve actually felt lost in the story. I enjoyed how the chapters weren’t long so I didn’t feel as if the book was dragging on. this book did exactly what it aimed to do by capturing the medieval fantasy vibe.

Dans le royaume de Norta, la couleur de votre sang décide du cours de votre existence. Sous l’égide de la famille royale, les Argents, doués de pouvoirs hors du commun, règnent sur les Rouges, simples mortels, qui servent d’esclaves ou de chair à canon. Mare Barrow, une Rouge de dix-sept ans, tente de survivre dans une société qui la traite comme une moins que rien. Quand elle révèle sans le vouloir des pouvoirs extraordinaires et insoupçonnés, sa vie change du tout au tout. Enfermée dans le palais royal d’Archeon et promise à un prince argent, elle va devoir apprendre à déjouer les intrigues de la cour, à maîtriser un don qui la dépasse, et à reconnaître ses ennemis, pour faire valoir l’indépendance de son peuple.

Here, surrounded by the people she hates the most, Mare discovers that, despite her red blood, she possesses a deadly power of her own. One that threatens to destroy the balance of power. Fearful of Mare's potential, the Silvers hide her in plain view, declaring her a long-lost Silver princess, now engaged to a Silver prince.

Red Queen Book 1

This is literally my favorite book series to ever exist. I read it for the first time in middle school and this is currently my second reread of the series. I decided to listen to it as an audiobook this time around. I think reading it is better, but I like the narrator of the audiobook as well. This will never not be my favorite series and I honestly wish everyone would read it.

Omg!!!!! This is amazing! I got this book for free at my local library and adored it from the first sentence!
First of all, the cover makes this book murderous but it isn't (if you don't include a violent dance and bombings). The whole book is based on these things: Mare, Maven, Cal, The Scarlet Guard, Red blood, and Silver blood. The silver's have abilities like controlling things and tearing apart things and playing with fire.
This book is super descriptive and if it hadn't been, then it wouldn't be half as long. (Not over the top descriptive, though.) 
The only thing I didn't enjoy was that IT'S AN ERA WITH KINGS, SO IT SHOULD BE OLD-FASHIONED!! 
But it isn't.
There are showers and jets. And not to mention security cameras. (Correct if I'm wrong on this.
Anyways the book is nice. I recommend it!

When I bought this book, at first I wasn't quite sure about it, but it pretty much got a hold of me from the beginning. I absolutely love love loved Red Queen and can't wait to get started on Glass Sword.

I only gave it 4 stars because of the writing, there were a couple spots that were a little weak. But overall i LOVE the story, would 10000% recommend it and cant wait to read the next book.

This was so good 😭😭 I will forever wonder why  I waited so dang long to read it!!!
