Our first stop in Oslo: the Nobel Peace Center, where we stood, awed, in this room filled with colorful lights, the names of all the Nobel Peace Prize winners, and the sounds of their words. ❤️ @primo_gal #Oslo #NobelPeaceCenter

Legend by Marie Lu - international book covers. Across from top - US, Bulgarian, Hebrew, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Vietnamese.
What was once the
western United States is now home to the Republic, a nation perpetually
at war with its neighbors. Born into an elite family in one of the
Republic’s wealthiest districts, fifteen-year-old June is a prodigy
being groomed for success in the Republic’s highest military circles.
Born into the slums, fifteen-year-old Day is the country’s most wanted
criminal. But his motives may not be as malicious as they seem.
From
very different worlds, June and Day have no reason to cross paths—until
the day June’s brother, Metias, is murdered and Day becomes the prime
suspect. Caught in the ultimate game of cat and mouse, Day is in a race
for his family’s survival, while June seeks to avenge Metias’s death.
But in a shocking turn of events, the two uncover the truth of what has
really brought them together, and the sinister lengths their country
will go to keep its secrets.
