Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard

This is the second bookafter Red Queen so if you haven't read Red Queen there will be spoilers. But if you want to check out my review of Red Queen you will find it here. http://anastasiarobsonwolfe.blogspot.co.uk/2015/09/red-queen-victoria-aveyard.html

After the incredible Red Queen I was skeptical about how Glass Sword will turn out compared to Red Queen. Reading Glass Sword I was pleasantly suprised and happy with how rich and amazing Glass Sword actually was,  the story had some great twist and a pinch of mind blowing throen into the mix. 

The book starts of exactly where Red Queen stopped which I really loved,  they are hurtling away from the war having been mind blown by how evil Maven really was.  The Red Guard have to escape Mavens clasp to find the Newbloods (Half red blood half silver blooded people). 

Mare's running out of time to save as many Newbloods she can find as Maven and his Silver army draw closer capturing Newbloods to be tortoured and tested on.

Gripping read a great follow up to Red Queen really worth the wait.

Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda - the Becky Albertalli

So the main reason I got this book was because of the hype that other book enthusiasts intended in the book. So inevitably I was sold.

In general I really liked the book and had a lot of difficulty getting into the book and the storyline took a while to want me to continue on with the book, and but this is the only negative I think I have for this book.

Oh apart from when the pages and words stopped that was saddening.

The book has a great comedy factor all the way through and I really like the way the author kept the charecter and charecters in the book jokey and all so at times light hearted.

The book is about seventeen year old Simon Spier, he has the big secret, he's gay.

Simon tried having girlfriends but it just didn't feel right and especially since Blue a mysterious guy from media caught his attention a few months ago, Blue all he know about Blues identity is that he goes to the same high school as Simon and that he is falling in love with Blue.

The book has some really every day and life problems within the pages and I respect the author greatly for putting these issues onto paper.
