This book didn’t let me put it down until I finished it unlike what I felt reading its previous book. I am really hopeful of this book after seeing its ratings on goodreads, and I am extremely happy that it’s finally good! The first few chapters are still a meh but the story becomes really interesting once it finally talks more about the rebels and what they are really fighting for.
I’m not sure where to start, hahaha. The Elite started so lovey-dovey I’m not even sure if I am reading the right book, lol. I’ve read the first book of this series 3 years ago, so I was ready to be confused even though I’ve just read its novella, The Queen (which isn’t related to this story directly), but I definitely wasn’t expecting that mushy start, hahaha.
The Queen is just a very short read but I genuinely enjoyed reading this one. It’s been years since I read The Selection which is the first book of this series, so I was a little confused while starting this story. I only got the hang of it when I found out that this is a story about Prince Maxon’s parents.
Red Queen is one of the few YA Fantasy series that I truly enjoyed when I was just starting in this genre years ago. For that, regardless of what I felt for the last two books of this series, it will still have a place in my heart. War Storm is the longest book of this series, probably because it’s the last book, but thinking about how the previous book ended, I feel that it was necessary.
King’s Cage started right after what ended in the previous book, in which Mare chose to be captured in order to save her friends. She was kept as a prisoner for 6 months in which she experienced a lot of awful things.
