I enjoyed LEGEND! The character development of June and Day, though very advanced for 15-year-olds, was very engaging. The world-building was a bit weak, but believable enough to work.

I liked the alternating chapters between the main characters, and the way Day's chapters were in a copper font. There were also a couple of occurrences that really made me close the book, picturing the scenes in my head. Very arresting!

I thought the flow of the narrative could've been smoother in some areas, but still, the writing is very strong, and I definitely want to follow June's and Day's journey into the next book of the series!

I give LEGEND a solid B.
