Today's Friday, which is a relief even after the not-so-busy week I've been having. Still, I have tons of homework to make up on the weekend, so Friday's going to be another bliss day for me. Tons of reading to do! So you can see why I'm in a happy mood. I was so happy that I decided to host this Legend trilogy giveaway for all my fellow dystopia fans out there. It seems right to celebrate the almost-end of this year with dystopia since it seemed to be very popular in 2013. Almost everyone's heard of this series, but it's no problem if you haven't. Just take a glance at the synopsis of the first book below to see if you think you'd enjoy reading it.
Legend (Legend #1)
by Marie Lu
Publisher: Penguin
Released February 2, 2012
Genre: YA, Dystopia, Romance
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.
