Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard

My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Very seldom i get to read series one after another. I had somewhat appreciated the story in Red Queen and was honestly eager to continue with Glass Sword.

I was however, reading Glass Sword reminded me of why i didnt read YA in the first place. I wanted to like the book but also somehow taken a bit bored and took much motivation to finish it because half way through it feels like im reading redundancy.

I am absolutely not in love with Mare’s character when i wanted so much to feel her. Cal described her in page 394 and i very much share his sentiments.

I do like the different characters of newbloods they ‘recruited’ and a sudden introduction to what is known as Ardents but perhaps to explore and ‘show’ their abilities would probably drag the story longer.

The ending is kind of expectedly disappointing. It feels like after all this hardwork of treading and reading and this is the end?!

I am guessing there will be a sequel, right? It doesnt seem like Cal has a part in the ending. Because he has to be the hero, not Mare.
