Powerless ( Lauren Roberts ) PLAGIARIZED Red Queen
LAUREN ROBERTS PLAGARIZED TF OUT OF AVEYARD !!! Detailed explanation and evidence below !
From the world building , to the scenes, to the character traits. She didn’t miss a thing !! I got so angry while reading this book. 80% of this book was written by aveyard, and the other 20% was stolen from Ms Suzanne Collins herself. At this point it isn’t inspiration when you have THIS MANY similarities & straight up plot lines copy & pasted.
I’ll give you a book description, you tell me if it’s red queen or powerless:
Poor girl is a thief for a living, and has a little sister that is a seamstress. Poor girl meets one of the princes by stealing coins from their pockets. (She thought he was a normal guy, but found out later exactly who he was)
After a public event witnessed by many people, Poor girl from the slums is invited to live in the castle. There are two Prince brothers, one is the heir , the other is the spare and they’re both pining for her.
One brother (the one she stole from) asks her to the ball, while the other brother whisks her away in the middle of the night for a private dance lesson to teach her how to dance with his brother.
Girl decides to join a rebel organization while living in the castle. The rebel organization is led by people who don’t have any magical abilities as a way to take down the oppressive monarch who only values citizens with magical abilities. While at the actual ball, a rebel organization BOMBS it.
At the castle, there is also a “mean girl” who is pining for these brothers and treats the FMC like crap.
Towards the end of the book, the main character is stuck in an arena fighting for her life. The rebel organization bombs this as well! Thus giving her the ability to escape the castle and the escape arrest for working with said rebel organization. The main character is also exposed for being a “red/ordinary”.
Finally, the story comes to a close with the brother ( who she went to the ball with) turns on her and orders her to be hunted down.
(Yes, the correct answer is BOTH, because these things happen in the exact same order in BOTH books!!!) 🤡
*I would also like to include that both worlds feature a genetic mutation in SOME humans which ended up giving them magical ability.
>In red queen we have “silvers” who have silver blood and special abilities, the “reds” have red blood and the peasants of society
>In Powerless we have the “plague” which made people sick, some got powers (the elites) , some stayed normal (the peasants of society).
>Mare is a red blood individual who pretends to be a “silver” in order to survive in society and at the end is exposed for being “Red/Normal”
>Paedyn is a ordinary who has to pretend she has powers to survive amongst society and at the end is exposed for being “Ordinary/Normal”.
In red queen, The silvers also do not have babies or intermix with the reds as they want to keep their bloodline pure and powerful, and do not want magic diluted.
In Powerless, the Powerful Elites kill or deport their ordinary people who did not develope powers because they want to keep their bloodlines pure and powerful , and do not want magic diluted.
