These 2 books are a part of the Red Queen series. Cruel Crown is the prequel to Red Queen. This was an interesting series. It wasn’t for me but I know it’s become quite popular! Red blood versus silver blood. The common class versus the patriarchy. Powers, a love triangle, and many more exciting tropes in these books! There’s a little more wear and tear on Red Queen with some creases and wear on the front cover.#fantasyfiction#redqueen#youngadult#tropes
