  • Great Read!

    Fantastic world-building with unique characters and magic created by the author. And it wasn't what I expected with a title like Red Queen (I won't spoil it!). Let's just say I thought it was all about a queen in power and her life. There was a queen, but it wasn't the MC. An engaging read! I couldn't wait to read the sequels. And I did! LOVED this series!

  • Characters and storyline is very compelling!

    To anyone who likes The Hunger Games, you are going to love this book! The storyline is so fresh yet seems familiar all at once! Finding a book that I actually want to read is hard now because I'm used to reading amazing YA books like Harry Potter and The Hunger Games and this ranks right up there with both! I absolutely love this book!
