It's February 2nd! That means only seven more days until Glass Sword comes out!
Now, I'm totally not cool enough to have an ARC of this book but I do have Cruel Crown. I actually have read this book but I want to take this moment to just fangirl over the sneak peak of Glass Sword in this book. I'll do an actual review of the other two books at a later time. It's busy season for me so not much time right now. Anyways, here we go!
Cruel Crown
by Victoria Aveyard
Ok, so more than a review, this is just me being a fangirl. I was absolutely excited that we have action right from the beginning. Glass Sword picks up where Red Queen ends. So if you haven't read Red Queen yet, it's still not too late. After all, you can just pick up Glass Sword after you're done. That might not be a bad idea since the story will be fresh on your mind.
Pretty much all the big characters are in this sneak peek. You have both Cal and Mare completely drained after their last trial and escaping from Maven and the discontent Scarlet Gaurd members being wary of Cal. Then, you have Maven hunting them down without skipping a beat. As far as storytelling goes, this is probably a good thing. We have a complete change in scenery. In the first book, Mare was the outcast but now we have Cal as the outcast. I'm excited to see how Cal will develop when he is surrounded by people who are don't trust him at all. Mare at least has friends and family around her but Cal is separated from his comfort zone. It's a complete reversal so let's see how this goes!
My verdict? Completely excited for Glass Sword! I preordered it so hopefully I can be patient until it comes in the mail.
