Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
September 2-22
If there’s one thing Mare Barrow knows, it’s that she’s different.
Mare’s blood is red – the colour of common folk – but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control.
The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from the prince and friend who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: she is not the only one of her kind.
Pursued by the Silver king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red and Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors.
But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat. Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?
Review : The sequel was crazy so much happened and I couldn’t stop reading. Mare has decided to build an army with newbloods but first she has to find them before maven does. But before their on the island with this colonel who is Farley father . Shade is alive he has powers like Mare he calls it jumping .The colonel traps cal and then Mare but they escape and they are gonna find these newbloods. I was kinda annoyed with Mare at some parts in this book cause she was mad at Cal for not wanting to kill all silvers there are good silvers Juilian and Sara who are still prisoners. And there are bad reds also there isn’t one is better than another . But it was cool to see the different ability the different newbloods had . They are plan to go to the palace and break the newbloods out but Shade dies and it’s so sad cause I liked him with Farley. They get Julian and Sara the queen is dead . They go back to the island. But Mare has to the choke but they run into maven and she bargains herself to him .
