The Red Labyrinth is a YA fantasy set to be published in June of 2019.

I loved this! I devoured this story and was left wanting more!
It is a fast paced story which I have noticed most other reviews have mentioned. Although fast paced it definitely didn’t affect the quality of the story.
The plot was enjoyable and for some reason gave me Divergent and Red Queen feelings. But the maze setting was all it’s own and original.
I thought Zadie was a likeable main character with great character development.
The plot twists at the end were surprising. I knew something was up as I continued reading but could never put my finger on what so I was pleasantly surprised at the end.
And you could definitely tell that the author and publisher are planning on another book but thats okay as I definitely want to read more!

This was a great read and I think it has the potential to be a hit for 2019!

Thank you Netgalley for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This was a pretty good Ya fantasy novel. The author creates a world where skilled people are valued over Blanks (people without powers). Zadie is born a Blank and she gets abused and harassed for most of her life by the Skilled. She meets Landon her childhood friend and he helps her fight off some of her tormentors. When her town is sabatoged by a new Leader Zadie finds the bravery to fight her demons and rescue her town.
This is a lot like The Wizard of Oz meets The Maze Runner series where nothing is what it seems.
Awesome first novel in the series. Can't wait for the next one.

The Red Labyrinth is a fast paced and adventurous story. I liked it from the start and read it till late in the night, because I needed to know how it would all work out. I didn't know for a long time if this is a Sci-Fi story or Fantasy. As it turns out, it's both and liked the combination of magic and science. Zadie also is a cool character. Her disturbing past didn't stop her at all but she suffers from it in her silent way. I'd totally recommend this book though I had some small issues with it like the repetition of some phrases or facts I've read several times before and I wish it were mentioned somewhere that this book is likely to be the first in a series. Otherwise the ending would be completely unfinished as it ends with a new beginning even though it's not a frustrating cliffhanger. Anyway, I want to know what is going to happen next.

Wow I just finished Meredith Tate's The Red Labyrinth and I have to give it 5 stars. This book was amazing and I couldn't put it down. I was so captavated by Zadie and Dex and their journey through the labyrinth. I couldn't wait to see what awaited this duo at every turn and to see what mysteries the labyrinth had in store for them. I'm not sure if there is going to be a sequel but I sure hope so. I believe there is more story to tell and I can't wait to read it. This book is a must read and will have you flying though to get to the end.

I really liked the writing but I couldn’t connect to the story or the characters as much I wanted to.

I was drawn into this wonderful labyrinth and honestly part of me is still there. I LOVED this! I need more!
The book is set in a little town of Trinnea where there are two types of people skilled and blanks and I really loved this idea. The town in run by the Leader who they believe is almost godlike. Where ever there is a god, there is usually a devil and the devil of Trinnea is Dex. Our Main Character is Zadie who is a blank which means she has no skills. I really liked Zadie, she was strong while also being fallible. She is in love with her best friend Landon who has always been there for her and saves her a few times.My favourite character was Dex, I liked him from the beginning. When something bad happens to the town, Zadie decides to go through the Labyrinth to the Leader. The Labyrinth is full of traps. I will admit that I guessed a few times what would happen in the book but I found that is still enjoyed it and I like to guess what will happen. The end, I loved the ending but I was also frustrated that that was it. I need more, I need to know what happens next! I will definitely read this book again and I will buy it when it is released!

Thank you for providing me this book. I will also post a review on my blog (lucysnovelpurpose.wordpress.com) about a week before the release date.
