I've only just started it but am liking the fusion of high fantasy with dystopia. It kind of reminds me of the Lunar Chronicles a bit? Idk I'm just getting similar vibes

Me who has already read the series 5 times

Loved Red Queen, fantastic introduction into the dystopian world. Fast paced from the start, plot is good too and I love the ideas presented. Also really liked how characters were introduced to us.

Didn't really like Glass Sword, almost put me into a reading slump. Hated Mare and her decisions on things as well as her over all behaviour.

Loved King's Cage, started to like Mare again and the story got better. Much more fast paced than GS in my humble opinion. I also appreciated the character development from Mare.

Currently onto War Storm, kinda stressed about the whole issue with Cal and Mare. Kinda want her to stab him in the kidney..Kinda want them to get smutty...

Kinda want her to stab him in the kidney..Kinda want them to get smutty..

I haven't even finished Red Queen yet but "I want her to stab him in the kidney" is hilariously specific haha
