Waiting on Wednesday: Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard


This bookish meme tells the blogosphere what we're waiting patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) for! It's hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine!

Glass Sword (Red Queen, #2)

Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard

     The thrilling second book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Red Queen trilogy follows Mare Barrow on her mission to defeat the traitorous Maven.
     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? 
     The electrifying next installment in the Red Queen series escalates the struggle between the growing rebel army and the blood-segregated world they’ve always known—and pits Mare against the darkness of her own heart.

Why I'm Waiting: I mean have you read the first one? HOLY. CLIFFHANGER. And reading the synopsis, I can't wait to see what is going on with Mare. I need to know what Mare is going to do. Plus Aveyard's writing style and all the fantasy elements from the first were all amazing. I can't wait for this installment to the series!
