Legend
Marie Lu
This is a dystopian Los Angeles and a plague has broken out. Day is a 15 year old and he is from the Republic's slums. June is a 15 year old and she is from the Republic's wealthiest district. Day is the Republic's most wanted criminal. June is the Republic's prodigy. Both meet under false pretences but a mutual attraction happens. Is June's beloved Republic all that they seem or is Day just another delinquent? Both are fighting for something but one of them must decide who to believe.
This is a fast paced page turner written from both character's perspectives. Starts off with Day who you learn is the epitome of rebellion. Bad boy doing right with family values is sure to make the girls swoon. June is the kick ass no nonsense girl with intelligence to beware of. The story gets straight to the point and doesn't drag. It's a great read for the feminist within or the guy who wants action and the girl, in other words, every person ever. If you liked The Hunger Games, you will definitely love this. Once finished, you will be wanting more and you will get it with the second in the trilogy.
