Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth
5.0

Oh hey, booktube SJWs/Reader SJWs stop getting butthurt over a book if you're looking to get offended by what an author writes, and don't be a hypocrite if you say you'll never read any book by an author then you do. Looking pretty stupid while doing so.

Food for thought.

Anyway I enjoyed Carve the Mark, like her previous books I got engrossed in the world Veronica created and I look forward to the sequel, the mythos was interesting and Cyra and Akos may have their differences but that's what makes this book brilliant. Division and conflict can be portrayed how a writer wishes. It's their book afterall if division causes an alliance from unsuspecting characters and they grow from each other that is good. On a side note it#'s such a shame that readers are getting so offended by books. Seriously grow up.

That is all.

A summery for Carve the Mark:

In a galaxy powered by the current, everyone has a gift.

Cyra is the sister of the brutal tyrant who rules the Shotet people. Cyra’s currentgift gives her pain and power — something her brother exploits, using her to torture his enemies. But Cyra is much more than just a blade in her brother’s hand: she is resilient, quick on her feet, and smarter than he knows.

Akos is the son of a farmer and an oracle from the frozen nation-planet of Thuvhe. Protected by his unusual currentgift, Akos is generous in spirit, and his loyalty to his family is limitless. Once Akos and his brother are captured by enemy Shotet soldiers, Akos is desperate to get this brother out alive — no matter what the cost.
The Akos is thrust into Cyra's world, and the enmity between their countries and families seems insurmountable. Will they help each other to survive, or will they destroy one another?
Carve the Mark is Veronica Roth's stunning portrayal of the power of friendship — and love — in a galaxy filled with unexpected gifts.
