Book Review RED QUEEN by Victoria Aveyard

Wow , No , What , How , Come on, Naaahh, AHA I knew IT , Holy cooow , no way noooo waaayyy , are you kidding me people , now thats stupid 

You know if I keep writing my reactions throughout the book this blog post will not do the job.

My mind is blown right now because of this book and I feel it is going to stay that way until I get my hands on the second book and read it. This book really amazed me.
The story presents Mare Barrow who is a Red living in the Stilts. The Red community is the working class. They are poor , impoverished and for the Silvers, they are nobody. On the other hand , the Silvers are the royalty, the nobles , the highest class. Their silver blood makes them special by having supernatural abilities while the reds do not have any and so they are better , they are the Gods and Lords that the reds have to serve.
By some means Mare comes to work for the royal family and by accident she discovers that she has some sort of ability , which is unheard of and makes her one of a kind, and her life turns upside down.
 For the first 50 pages or so it was just the layout of the scenes, the characters and the society in general, normally I would be like umm meh during this phase but this time I was not. It is intriguing . You want to know who is that and why that is happening etc...
Then BAM!!!!!  the action starts and after that the pace is quick and delightful. there is a confusing sort of love triangle that takes you aback sometimes but it is a good romance. This is one of few books that the plot twist surprises me. I never saw it coming and it is frustrating. The twist just hits you in the face from nowhere that you are like NO NO NOOO !!!!!!HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE????!!!!!!
That is very clever of Victoria Aveyard. Also the character development is really amazing and so well done. You can see the characters grow and change throughout the story revealing different aspects of their personalities. Another thing confused me in this book is that you can not possibly know who to trust. The loyalties change and the betrayal is crazy.
That is it for today's blog I hope you enjoyed it and I did not spoil you a lot. See you next time . Byyyyyeeee

This book is one of a kind , give it to Victoria everyone, I truly enjoyed it and by enjoyed it I mean I tensed , grinned , laughed , clenched my teeth ... etc. That was amazing. I can not wait to read the second book.

BOOK TAG #3
The Tunisian Bookish Tag 

This tag was created by the lovely Amal Bedhyefi a tunisian booktuber and she tagged me to do it , so here we go 

1.when did you start reading and what made love to read?

I started reading about 5 years ago maybe a bit more .. but then my reading pace was slow and I was just discovering my passion. What dragged me into reading was my love for english and twilight. Wel before that I read the first 2 books of Harry Potter in french but then I saw the first movie of twilight and decided to read he series and OMG I loved it . So basically after that I never quit reading.

2.Best book you ever read and changed your life.

I do not have one favorite book and I cannot say that a certain book changed my life because I learn something from every book I read and all that change me in a way. But my top 2 would be BRANDED by Abi Ketner and Missy Kalicicki and THE POWER OF FIVE by Anthony Horowitz

3.Your favorite author

Not a particular author but I love the writing style of Jennifer L.Armentrout and I am willing to read all of her books. I would love to read another book by JK Rowling. To be honest there are a lot of authors who rock with their writing style but I do not pick a book based on the author but more based on the reviews I hear or the summary on the back.

4.Worst book you read

I do not have an answer for this one because I didnt hate any book I read before. It is simple for me because I do not pick books randomly . I look for reviews , hear opnions and I do not get caught in the hype over a book.

5.Favorite booktuber

American booktubers were the ones to introduce me to booktubing. My favorites are Sasha from Bookutopia and Christine from PolandbananansBOOKSHowever the growth of tunisian booktuber  community is really heartwarming and I am really happy about it.

6.Have you ever read books by tunisian authors ?

Unfortunately I did not. Mainly beacause I do not live in Tunisia so I do not really have a chance to get them and a bit beacuse I do not read much in arabic or french (I hardly ever do. A shame). But I really plan on getting a couple when I go back home soon.

7.How many books do you have on your bookshelves?

A bit over 200 books. I lost count lately.But I still have a really long list so the number is going up soon because I am saving to buy a whole bunch of books. 

8.A book you want to read so badly?

To be honest I cannot wait to read all the books on my to read list but there is book I am waiting for with agony that is the third book of the Sinners series by Abi ketner abd Missy kaliciki . It is called Liberated and there no release date yet. The first 2 books were so good and I cannot wait for the third one.

9.What are you currently reading?

 For now  am reading Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard. I talked about it a bit in my latest book haul. Check it out . So far I am loving it.

So this is it for the tag I hope ou enjoyed it. see you in the next blog. Be on the look.
