Queen of Volts
Queen of Volts | Amanda Foody
8 posts | 7 read | 6 to read
Return to the City of Sin, where the final game is about to begin...and winning will demand the ultimate sacrifice. Only days after a corrupt election and brutal street war, one last bloodthirsty game has begun. The players? The twenty-two most powerful, notorious people in New Reynes. After realizing they have no choice but to play, Enne Scordata and Levi Glaisyer are desperate to forge new alliances and bargain for their safety. But while Levi offers false smiles and an even falser peace to the city's politicians, Enne must face a world where her true Mizer identity has been revealed...and any misstep could turn deadly. Meanwhile, a far more dangerous opponent has appeared on the board, one plucked right from the most gruesome legends of New Reynes. As the game takes its final, vicious turn, Levi and Enne must decide once and for all whether to be partners or enemies. Because in a game for survival, there are only losers... And monsters.

Mehso-so

Starts off strong where the second left off-
Massive fall out for the MC‘s, but they are still trying to find their way out together, tons of conflict -everyone thinks their way is best.
Enne‘s impulsive ways catch up with her quickly.

But there are TOO MANY PEOPLE. I do not need what is happening from every side character in the book.

It‘s book 3 and there‘s so much random world building. Why? If it wasn‘t needed in book 1…

But, ok conclusion.

Now, I don‘t like a lot of YA. I used to love it. For a long time actually and I “out grew it” at like 33 or so. It just wasn‘t the escape I craved (murder is much more relaxing 🤣).

I am enjoying this series. But oh my god would this book be so much better if everyone had a developed prefrontal cortex and was intentional with their actions. I can‘t tell if it‘s bad writing or if everyone‘s just 17.

LibrarianRyan I love the “ I can‘t tell if it‘s bad writing or if everyone‘s just 17.“ so so so telling. I feel this way about foody frequently. 2y
5feet.of.fury @LibrarianRyan I‘ve only read this series of hers but the impulsivity and inconsistencies are driving me batty. I also feel like she really left a lot of world building/backstory for book 3… And there‘s just infinity characters at this point. 2y
5feet.of.fury @LibrarianRyan sounded good to me, but I think I‘ll need a long break before I read her again 2y

Nothing grinds my gears like a preorder being cancelled (a month AFTER the book has been released, I might add) because it is no longer available when it obviously IS very much available 🤬

Did I mention that my preorder price was $5 cheaper than what it's currently listed for? 🤬🤬🤬

tealwish Not cool! 3y

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This is a dark, gritty book with lots of bloodshed and deception. This was a great conclusion to the series. #litsy #littens #bookstagram #bibliophile #amandafoody #aceofshades #kingoffools #queenofvolts

Thanks for the tag @Book_Fiend_Melissa and happy belated birthday 🎉🎊🎉

1. Generally I keep them but I usually cull my collection once a year and donate or offer to friends anything that no longer suits my collection or anything I have multiples of (it happens more than I'd like to admit 🤦‍♀️)

2. Tagged. I'm both terrified and super excited to finish this series

Late to the game so if you want to play consider yourself tagged!

It feels like forever since I've bought new paper books (between pandemic living and being nose-deep into my e-readers), but here we are. Also, Volts is a beast (~600 pages). 📚

This is book 3 and I believe the end of the trilogy for the King of Fools series. I received book one in @Owlcrate. Still haven't read it. I have heard lots of good things. I'm just not the biggest fan of the cover.

Out Aug 31
