Initial Thoughts on Legend

[Angie, YA lovin mod!!]

What do you think of Legend so far? Do you like it? No spoilers in this thread please.

[E.J.]

I actually already read this book and was super excited that it was this months pick! Don't worry I won't spoil anything;)
This series is amazing I think. The future dystopia society that Lu creates is very layered and rich. I love Day so much and while June is very logical to a fault at times, I like her character as well.
Excited to see what others think.

I am finishing up a book and then I'm going to get started. Can't wait!

[Stormy]

I'm so excited to read Legend! But it looks a bit short... But still very excited to read! But first have to finish Les Miserables (249 pages left!!)

[Kritika]

I just bought and read this book last month, and I checked out Prodigy from the library today! Perfect timing :)

I really enjoyed the fast pace and the intelligent characters. The ending was very intense!

Jacqueline, I agree that June is very logical, but that's part of what made me love her because I'm a bit over-logical myself :)

At the beginning I was tad confused because I wanted to know more about the setting and the situation the characters lived in, but it got me hooked since chapter 1. :)

I like the different font and font colors used for each character's chapters. That's neat!!

Hi Rebecca, really? Why's that? I think for me it was the other way. The more I read the better it got :)

Hey Sandra! I think it was probably bc the initial part of the story felt more original to me, I kinda felt like the end was a bit similar to others YA books I've been reading lately

Ohh I see. That tends to happen a lot to me, but not with this book. Are you giving Prodigy a chance? Its way better than Legend :D

Yes, I understand :) I felt like there was something missing but I really enjoyed it.

[Holly]

I was impressed with it! I really liked reading about a girl troublemaker/exceller in school. I wish there had been more school scenes because I find that fun, but that probably would have slowed the plot down. I loved Mitas like he was my own brother (I'm not even exaggerating) so I'm sure you can understand how I felt later on...

Who is the author of this book please

Hi Holly! Yes, indeed that is such a good thing to read about; how the perfect girl is a troublemaker and I adored Metias too <3 <3

I love this book so much I'm like 150 pages from being done Prodigy then ill have to wait till Novemeber for Champion :( I love these book as much as I love Harry Potter so a lot I ship Day and Tess. I like June but I don't its a like hate thing. I get irritated with June a lot. Tess is easily my favourite character along with Day and Kaede

[Stormy]

When I started Legend, the first part was a bit slow for me. But once June met up with Day it really started picking up and now I can hardly put the book down. Looks like a trip to Barnes and Nobles is in order for tonight!!

I love when a book is so good I go immediately to B&N!

[chinami]

good book. good characters.

[Kaity]

I liked it. :)

[Juliann]

I liked it. It moved really quickly for all the world-building they get in there. Their romance was really sweetly complicated.

I loved it and I thought it was better than Prodigy and Champion. Though Prodigy had some really good jealousy in it.
