What Legend Means to Me
Okay heres a warning: this isnt super interesting but i wanted to post something for Legend’s 5th bday (WOW!). please dont feel obligated to read this(!!!). HAPPY LEGEND WEEK COUSINS!!!!!!
Legend
has been with me for about a fourth of my life. It came out five years
ago (November of 2011) but I read it in 2012. It was one of the very
first books that made me cry, so obviously I have loved the story and
characters since I picked the book up. Within the first page I was
completely hooked. I used to want to be a secret agent when I grow up,
but the whole idea still interests me. So when I read the little summary
of the back cover at my middle school book fair, I was veryyyyy
excited. I read Legend so quickly but reread it at least three more
times. I bought Prodigy the day it was released in January. I also
sobbed at the end of that one as well (very nice job Marie) and waited
FOREVER (lol like 10 months) for Champion to come out. (I made my
Instagram account after I read Prodigy actually!)
Marie
Lu’s writing has inspired me so so much. After reading her books,
writing really interested me for some reason. She just has a voice in
her books that i fell in love with and it made me want to try to write
something hopefully at least similar to hers. So, if I hadn’t read
Legend, I may not even have this hobby.
Legend
is a book I think everyone can enjoy. It isn’t a book specifically
suggested (i guess) for girls or boys or a certain age (OKAY sure mostly
young adults read it but there are also a lot of adults out there that
have loved the books too). The endless themes from this trilogy are so
so so important in today’s world, and I think it’s awesome Marie is
trying to help educate people on these topics.
There
is no reason NOT to love Legend. Except maybe that Marie Lu breaks your
heart after each novel. So this is what Legend means to me. <3
My incredible Legend fans, I’ve been following many of your posts for Legend Week this week, and I’m seriously floored by the love and support you’ve all shown for me and the world of Legend. Ahh! My heart! <3 I can’t believe it’s already been FIVE (!!!) years since Legend first came out. Day and June are still dear to my heart, and it makes me so happy that they are to you all, too. Thank you, thank you, thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart. <3

Yesterday, I had the extreme honor to participate in a brainstorming session with @amiekaufmanauthor , @misterkristoff , and the incredible rocket scientists and mischief makers and big dreamers who work at JPL. Yes, really. I’m still beside myself. And even though this past week has truly been one of nightmares, it was soul-healing to share thoughts and hear the grandest of ideas from the one government department I’ve idolized since childhood. Thank you for reminding us how ambitious and curious humans can be, JPL, and thank you so much for having us! I’m forever honored and humbled. ❤️ #NASA #JPL #spaceftw (at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory)
