King's Cage by Victoria Aveyard

In the third book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Red Queen series, Mare is forced to play a psychological cat-and-mouse game with an old and deadly enemy, where the stakes are not only the future of the Red Rebellion but the sanctity of her own mind.

Took forever, finally just set the audio book speed to 1.5

This book was a lot better than Glass Sword (#2), especially with the added perspectives of Evangeline and Cameron. Still, it's still nowhere near the first book.

This is one of the times I somehow keep buying and reading the sequels, hoping the next book will be -at least- as good as the first. Or maybe the next will be. Or the next. Luckily King's Cage was an improvement of Glass Sword.

To be honest, if the next book wasn't already sitting on my bookshelf, I probably wouldn't have continued reading this series
