Reviews with content warning for War - Glass Sword

“ - Shade Barrow!
- Oh, vá lá, toda a gente sabe. Não é culpa minha que não te tenhas apercebido. “

Bom, decidi ler o segundo livro da rainha vermelha porque gostei bastante do primeiro. E acho que é um bom livro porque me apeguei a personagens e fiquei feliz porque numa altura estava a correr tudo bem até não correr e morri por dentro um pouco tantas vezes que até me perguntei porque é que ainda estava a ler o livro no fim :,)

De qualquer maneira este livro continua a história de Mare Barrow e não só, também conta a história de Kilorn, Farley, Shade, Cal, e todos os sanguenovos que vão sendo salvos. Uma boa continuação para o livro Rainha Vermelha, a continuação do desenvolvimento dos sanguenovos e as suas diferentes habilidades foram uma das coisas que me fez querer continuar a ler, para além de Shade, Kilorn e do romance…….

Agora vou ler outros primeiro antes de continuar com a coleção para recuperar a dor emocional que me deu este livro.

“ - Se morreres, mato-te.
Ele sorri tristemente.
- Igualmente “

The complex relationships of war-time is very well written. The magic of the world is easy to understand and unique. They seem to keep forgetting that the main character, who holds thousands of lives in her hands is 16 years old, but the worst part is the supposed romance. There is 0 chemistry between Mare and Cal. Their feelings for each other is unbelievable. The most chemistry Mare ever had with anyone is Maven, and he's a douche and a half. Even Shade and Farley have no chemistry. The pairings don't seem to match up well.

This book was honestly just a bridge to get to book three, in my opinion.

It wasn't the worst, but I felt like the first 75% of the book was dragging to lead to a big ending to set up for book 3. I did enjoy seeing more of the powers in this book, but I do wish that we got a bit more from that. Mare's story and adventure were entertaining with the audiobook and I am excited to see what else will come out of this series.
