te vas a ir derechito al infierno elara :D aún así me sigues cayendo bien :D

Original de: El Extraño Gato del Cuento

He llegado al punto dónde no sé si me gusta los libros de esta serie o el fandom que esta serie de libros creo. Cuando leí Red Queen (Reina Roja en español), me gustó mucho el concepto de la historia aunque no tanto como estuvo desarrollado. Es uno de esos libros que si pasa mucho tiempo entre publicación de libros en la serie, te vas dando cuenta de sus errores y cuando llega el siguiente, todo esa excitación que te genero al inicio, no acompaña al nuevo libro.

Para mí la emoción de leer Queen Song es por gran culpa de Tumblr, todas esas teorías sobre si Coriane en realidad esta viva y muchas otras, me daban demasiadas ganas de leer este historia corta.

Que si bien disfrute, fue solo por Elara, Robert y la reina Anabel. Coriane es... no lo que esperaba de ella.

Queen Song cuenta con solo seis capítulos cortos y los primeros tres, se me hicieron muy difíciles de congeniar con Coriane. Victoria Aveyard no supo convencerme con un personaje como el de Coriane. Es bastante fastidioso estar en su cabeza, la escritora quiso darme un personaje medio amargado y un tanto egoísta, pero no pudo hacerlo fácil de leer.

Lo que sí me gusto, fue Elara, uno de mis personajes favoritos en Red Queen. Esta mujer tiene un presencia y maldad exquisita. Es en serio mala-maldita, después de esto no hay forma que le agrade a muchos. Yo la sigo adorando. Es que mientras Coriane es un personaje un poco soso, Elara es una villana imponente, difícil de opacar.

No hablaré mucho de Robert y Anabel, solo que Anabel me gustaría saber un poco más de ella (tengo la sospecha que estos libros tendrán tantas historias cortas como The Selection ). Y Robert sweet cinnamon roll ♥

Queen Song lo califico como en lo que GoodReads le dice: It was okay, nada del otro mundo. Me ha puesto un poco preocupada, la verdad, si la escritora sigue con tanta fórmula pre-hecha, no tendrá buen futuro conmigo u.u

It was interesting to know about Cal’s mother’s background and I think we were able to get a good feel for the kind of person she was given the short book.

Interesting note that there was deep tension with Elara from so far back, and that Coriane actually came from a weaker house and didn’t do a Queen’s Trial. Also an interesting ending with her death (lol am I slow or is it up in the air if Elara killed her or not?).

Seems like Coriane always had sympathy for the Red blooded and never wanted her son to become a soldier (which ironically he became, and while he has sympathy he’s still very pro-Silver blood as of book 2 so).

4.5 stars. I think this book was a good novella, I was just finding it hard to get it in the same world as Red Queen. It seems so different. Sara and Julian are young, and seem nothing like themselves. It was different seeing the Silver point of view, and I just couldn't connect with it at all.

This story is about the true unraveling of Coriane, and how she actually came to know the prince. It was quite hard to understand Coriane, but it was a short story, and she is a very twisted girl. By the end, you know how she dies. It's a dark story.

Like I said, this is the story of the Unraveling of Queen Coriane, and it is mystifying, miraculous, and disturbing nonetheless.

This book had the potential to show us the backstory of Norta, the king, Cal and delve into the amazing love story that could have been. It also had the potential to show us more about the powers that silvers have especially singers and whispers
Instead we got a 55 page story that felt rushed and only showed us a glimpse of Corianne. It was disappointing.
