Yeah, I’m Team Maven all the way😉.
THE REVIEWWhy this book?I read the other books in this seriesWhat I thoughtWhy oh why did Victoria Aveyard give Cameron a POV? I couldn't stand the little bitch. Also why her? Why didn't Cal get a POV? Speaking of Cal WTF was Cameron's problem with him? All she did was diss him. She actually made me look forward to the Mare parts just to get out of her head. She also made Mare bearable, that's something I thought i'll never say. The ending is the other problem. Lets just say it upset me okay. Wi...
“Monsters are most dangerous when they are afraid.”We’ve made it this far! But do I want to continue, I don’t know. I’m going to put a pause on it and wait for a sign to finish this series.“I’m starting to think I need a word that means yes and no at the same time.”Mare is imprisoned by Maven, and during this time she is tortured in many ways. Cal and the newbloods and reds are working to get her back. Do they succeed?I really liked how the second book explored the effects of betrayal in the min...
4.5 Stars “Somewhere in the distance, somewhere in my bones, thunder rolls.” If Red Queen was a game of charade and Glass Sword was a game changer, then King's Cage is a reincarnation of the two, manipulation and war and survival and politics woven into its essence, but on a whole other level. No longer a hide and seek playground, but a chessboard where powerful masterminds control kings and queens and princes and princesses and many, many pawns to fight for the ultimate trophy -- the throne o...
A Smarter girl would turn and run To be fair...the author tried to warn me.To keep this review from getting as long (and as bloated) as the book, I will focus on the three worst aspects - the prison, the characters and the sexay scenes.Mare's Prison or should I say, my vacation?The entire book consists of Mare whining about how difficult life was...It's just...come on. Really? What does she have to whine about? I've been broken too many times to break again. Her "prison" includes: A pr
"You ask how much of it was me," he whispers. "Some. Enough." DEAR MARE, STOP PICKING THE WRONG BROTHER.***Warning, spoilers abound, do not continue with this review unless you have read the book.****First of all, I CALLED IT. I KNEW that we'd be getting lots of Maven and seeing the boy behind the villain's mask in this one. And PRAISE THE BOOK GODS, I'm so glad Victoria didn't let me down. She gave us all those moments we hoped for, the explanation, the moments of fragility, the tension, eve
Too many fillers. Boring writing style. Disintegrated storyline. Dull characters. Flat villain. King's Cage is a bipolar book. Everything is swung up and down all the time, especially the characters being unstable and intermittent. I'm beyond disappointment and frustration, even though I didn't expect anything at all before reading, I still feel as if this book is a waste of my time. If you think Glass Sword was terrible, you would be terribly wrong because this book was ten times worse that I c...
Hello Goodreads, I'm back, already suffering from King's Cage withdrawal syndrome and more heartbroken than I care to admit.King's Cage was the most powerful, deep and contradictory installment of Red Queen so far. The first half nearly drove me to give it three stars, it was unbearably slow and made me question my decision to continue this series many times. I felt like I was drowning in a swamp, trying to move yet stuck in the same place for so long I lost the concept of time. But in the end i...
3.5 Stars... So politic and sh*t this wrench my gut. What can I say? This series kept more and more like a dystopian fiction, more than being high fantasy. However, I like this one a bit better that Glass Sword due to politic game, more Maven, and because THIS ONE GAVE ME MANY FEELSSS *angry* *giddy* *angry* *giddy* and then *wrathhhhhh*, not made me all bored like GS! 1. CAl & MARE and Politic attitudes. I love that the characters are not totally black or white. There are what they are becau...
Me reading this book: After one semi-intelligible novel in Red Queen and one genuine flop in Glass Sword, King’s Cage was going to be 26-year-old Victoria Aveyard’s Hail Mary on the series that was supposed to be the “next big YA thing” but has been a painful lesson in hype versus realistic expectation. Does it succeed in doing so: I so badly wanted to say she turned things around but she didn’t – and that’s putting it nicely. Here’s the thing that I’m still wondering about with Victoria Avey...
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!! 😡😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬Okay.... I just finished and I’m freaking mad!! Had I been reading a physical copy of this book it would have been chucked out the window!!! 😡🤬😫😤☹️ The first half of this book was slow slow slow. I was really bugged that suddenly this story was told from other characters POV. The first two were Mare’s POV. So, I found myself being bored unless it was Mare. 🤨 That aside, it did pick up a little more than half way through. DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU’RE WOR...
The face of Universal Studios executives every time Aveyard says the movie is in development with them despite it's been five years, the producer has had two box office bombs (one that devalued the stock price of Lionsgate), and they've so obviously passed over the movie rights like dodging a bad box office nuclear bomb: Mare, I’d argue, is the central character who let this series down. Not just how insufferable she is but how Aveyard scrambled to reassign the ethnicity of the character hal...
As promised here I go with my review! First of all: I loved King’s Cage and didn’t want it to end! *fangirl squee* After the fast-paced Glass Sword I was really looking forward to find out what would happen to Mare and the book definitely didn’t disappoint me. Book three basically picks up where Glass Sword left off and our poor heroine is still kneeling in front of Maven. The first two-thirds of the book deal with Mare’s captivity and the torture her life has become, the last third is about her...
I’m not leaving this place unless I leave behind his corpse—or mine. Well…No one can possibly understand how much love and adoration I have for this series. Book one and two were literal obsessions for me. I loved them so deeply that I literally took the time to annoy each and every one of my closest friends who chose to give a shit…even though 4/5 of them didn’t care for this series. I can’t even count all the times throughout a year that I say the name ‘Cal’. I know for a fact that

Minor Spoilers Ahead!!!!!!!!So guys this was one of my favourite series but this book just made me so upset. I hate it!!!! I feel to laugh in Mare's face at the end. Bitch. I am so happy that that happened! I think that's one of the only positives. Oh and these are just my taught and opinions ;)So I finally decided to do a proper review.I gave this book 2*. I won't lie the first half was enjoyable. The sarcasm was on point and I loved the whole weird feelings and relationship between Mare and Ma...
2.5 stars WARNING! This review will contain spoilers. I will first talk about non-spoiler stuff then I'll switch to a spoiler chat. If you have not read King's Cage, then don't continue. Or if you don't have any intention on reading the Red Queen series, then welcome. To say I was disappointed would be correct.To say that I was glad I was done reading King's Cage would also be correct.EpicReads (who I like) overhyped the hell out of this series. It's not the best series ever, but it isn't bad. T...
