Legend by Marie Lu
Legend is the first book in the Legend-trilogy, written by Marie Lu. The second book is Prodigy, and the third Champion.
I also like the way she divides the two characters June Iparis and Day - the way (in my book) it’s divided with different colors and different fonts. I also love the way she manages to always keep the tension going, I never get bored, and I feel like I’m even more alert while reading.
We get to meet Day, a famous criminal in the Republic, by failing his Trials and a family with the plague, he tries to get cures for them by stealing and betting. And then we meet June Iparis, a prodigy with the perfect score of 1500 in her Trials. She’s the sister of Metias, a really important military guy in the Republic. The two different characters are so well written I thought that they were written with two completely different voices. I knew that somewhere in this book these two characters were going to meet, but I was surprised by the way they met.
I have to say that if you ever read The Maze Runner or Divergent or Hunger Games, you’re going to love this book! And I seriously can’t wait to start the next one!
