"Kneel or Bleed." That's the tagline for Victoria Aveyard's newest release in the Red Queen series, Glass Sword. While I enjoyed Red Queen, this second novel has me hooked and waiting anxiously for the release of books three and four in this series. If you enjoy fantasy, action, and adventure, this is definitely a series for you! The premise of the Red Queen series and this book follows the struggle between two factions in a society: the Silvers and the Reds. The Silvers (identified by their silver blood) rule and govern the society because of their special powers and abilities. The Reds (identified by their red blood) do not possess powers or abilities that make them special so they are relegated to the "common" working class. Glass Sword and Red Queen have it all--betrayal, action, rebellion, suspense, and the unexpected. The characters are excellent, the plot is thorough and twisted and it will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last word. Glass Sword is one of the top YA books released in 2016 and based on my experience and the reaction of other students and teachers who have read it, it is a MUST READ! Jenn Gibson Media Specialist
