Book Review : Prodigy by Marie Lu

This is the second book of the Legend Trilogy.
If you like Legend, you definitely will like Prodigy better.

Synopsis :
June and Day arrive in Vegas just as the unthinkable happens: the Elector Primo dies, and his son Anden takes his place. With the Republic edging closer to chaos, the two join a group of Patriot rebels eager to help Day rescue his brother and offer passage to the Colonies. They have only one request—June and Day must assassinate the new Elector.

It’s their chance to change the nation, to give voice to a people silenced for too long.

But as June realizes this Elector is nothing like his father, she’s haunted by the choice ahead. What if Anden is a new beginning? What if revolution must be more than loss and vengeance, anger and blood—what if the Patriots are wrong?

In this highly-anticipated sequel, Lu delivers a breathtaking thriller with high stakes and cinematic action.


There is something sad at the end of this book :(
I re-read it again with my eyes and mouth went widen. I was like "Nononono, Ms.Author! Please!" inwardly.
It makes me crave for the next sequel. Marie Lu did a great job.
In this book, Day's part is Blue and June's part is black in all of 3 books in this trilogy I guess.
So, only Day's part that keeps changing color.

Favorite Quotes
“He is beauty, inside and out.
He is the silver lining in a world of darkness.
He is my light.” - June

“Love is illogical, love had consequences--I did this to myself, and I should be able to take it.”

“We're in this together, right?" he whispers. "You and me? You want to be here, yeah?" There's guilt in his questions. "Yes," I reply. "I chose this." Day pulls me close enough for our noses to touch. "I love you.”

Book Review : Legend by Marie Lu

I just read Legend by Marie Lu and I love it!
It is a dystopian thriller story. If you crave for dystopian story, try read this one!
It is fast-paced. Great! I really dislike slow-paced, isn't it boring?

Synopsis :

A New York Times bestseller!

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.

Legend is based on two POVs. Day and June.
Day's part is gold and June's part is black.
I found it fascinating to read. I don't know you will like it or not because you might be feel annoyed due to that.

Favorite Quotes
“Each day means a new twenty-four hours. Each day means everything's possible again. You live in the moment, you die in the moment, you take it all one day at a time. -Day” 

“You're brilliant,"he says."But you're a fool to stay with someone like me."
I close my eyes at the touch of his hand."Then we are both fools.”
