I remembered immediately how lovely characters Day & June are and how different backgrounds they have. This made me feel for Day so much, and I think I prefered his story.

I also noticed how much I love this dystopian world, it was nice to be back in it.

These were neat stories showing an important scene from both POV when they were 12-yo.

I promise this is my last post! 😥😂 I can‘t believe I forgot to make a review of this since I read it a few days ago.
I have to admit this is my first exposure to Marie Lu‘s work...I‘m really liking what I‘m reading from this story so far. REALLY curious to see where everything takes turn in the actual Legend series. Loved her writing style 😊😊😊🥰🥰🥰

It was a quick read and as always I really loved the story and how I can picture everything she writes. One of my favorite authors.

A good, quick read. Not especially memorable, but a fun read to wrap up the rest of the series if you enjoyed the main 3 books. You get to see June and Day before the events of Legend, June dealing with being accelerated through school as a Prodigy, and Day...well...not.

Have you guys heard the news? When you pre-order #Warcross, you'll get an exclusive short story — Life After Legend — which is Day's POV in the #Champion epilogue. OMG I NEED IT! I love this trilogy. My babies DUNE! ♥️
