My pick this week is...
Author: Victoria Aveyard
Release Date: February 10th, 2015
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
Mare Barrow's world is
divided by blood--those with red and those with silver. Mare and her
family are lowly Reds, destined to serve the Silver elite whose
supernatural abilities make them nearly gods. Mare steals what she can
to help her family survive, but when her best friend is conscripted into
the army she gambles everything to win his freedom. A twist of fate
leads her to the royal palace itself, where, in front of the king and
all his nobles, she discovers a power of her own--an ability she didn't
know she had. Except . . . her blood is Red.
To hide this impossibility, the king forces her into the role of a lost Silver princess and betroths her to one of his own sons. As Mare is drawn further into the Silver world, she risks her new position to aid the Scarlet Guard--the leaders of a Red rebellion. Her actions put into motion a deadly and violent dance, pitting prince against prince--and Mare against her own heart.
From debut author Victoria Aveyard comes a lush, vivid fantasy series where loyalty and desire can tear you apart and the only certainty is betrayal.

The Red Queen looks so freaking awesome! Reminds me a bit of Alice In Wonderland with the red and silver colors even though the novel sounds nothing like it. xD Definitely adding this to my TBR pile.
