Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard

I think I've featured this before, but it's the first time I've seen the cover so it's worth featuring again! (Or maybe I've seen the cover before and forgot)
Mare Barrow’s blood is red—the color 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 Maven, the prince—the friend—who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: she is not the only one of her kind.
Pursued by Maven, now a vindictive 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?/div>

Very excited for this! One of my most anticipated novels of 2016. Great pick!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for this one too! I had the ARC of the first book, wish I could get my hands on an ARC on this one! Great pick!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my WOW
I am waiting right behind you! One of my biggest regrets at YALLFest, was being too late in line to get an ARC of Glass Sword. If I ever go to YALLFest again, I will need to figure out that whole line thing quicker.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't finished Red Queen yet because I kinda got turned off by the love triangle. I think I'll let all the books in the series be released first before I start reading again.
