Legend (Legend, #1)

Holy amazingness. Here's what I thought:
1. At first, it's like being dropped into a sequel. The world isnt just explained right off the bat; you figure it out as time goes on, which is cool and very good world-building.
2. All the characters were highlighted, no matter how long they were in the book. I could give you a list of every character right now...but I won't.
3. June and Day were great lead characters. The whole thing played like a movie in my head. Very vivid, but not too descriptive to the point of boredom.
4. Unique writing style. Very different and refreshing, I appreciated how in this edition, June's chapters were a different color than Day's, it made it easier to remember who was speaking. Both narrators were equally interesting.
5. The plot is just fantastic. Thrilling, mysterious, fast-paced. Never a dull moment.
6. Took me back to reading Divergent and The Maze Runner, however, it was very unique on its own. Very good dystopian elements!
7. We need that sequel! Soon!

I'm trying to read this and A Million Suns at the same time. I have to finish them soon because I want to have them done when I meet Beth Revis and Marie Lu on the 15th.
You're so lucky! By the way how is A Million Suns so far?, Cassidy or CassJayTuck on youtube said it was awesome but I'd like to know what you thought aswell.
I was quite honestly bored with it for a while, but it's getting good now. Lots of plot twists. Have you read Across the Universe?
No but I'm taking a trip to the book store this weekend, hoping to buy both books there. I've just been so busy studying for exams that I never had the chance. I am starting Divergent though.
By the way I know your doing questions about Percy Jackson. Sadly I dont have a youtube account so i was thinking you can take my question from goodreads? That would be great. Here ar my questions you can take them if you like.What is you favorite book in the series?
Who is your favorite character?
If you could be any god, who would you be?
Would you rather be a god or a demigod?
Which Camp do you like better, Camp half-Blood or Camp Jupiter?
Did you like the Percy Jackson and the Olympians movie?
Percy or Jason?
Annabeth or Piper?
What is your least favorite book in the series?
What are your expectations for the next book?
Are you excited for the next book?
