⭐4 stars⭐ I will hunt you down. I will scour the streets of Los Angeles for you. Search every street in the Republic if I have to. I will trick you and deceive you, lie, cheat and steal to find you, tempt you out of your hiding place, and chase you until you have nowhere else to run. I make you this...

The only thoughts I had after reading this book was that this writer did not waste any words or time getting to the point of the story. Sometimes you read a book and it is filled with pages on pages of meandering plot points and extra waste of time and words that don't add a thing to the story. Ap...

I remember when Legend came out and people were raving about how awesome it was. The hype was so much that when Marie Lu went to the LA Festival of Books to sell signed copies, I stopped by her booth just so I could read it and see what the raving was all about. Of course, I’m terrible at reading bo...

Before or after? I’m not sure if I liked this book so much because of the good reviews, or because I enjoyed it. Did the masses influence me? Who knows?

There is absolutely nothing new or unpredictable in this book, but it was so much fun. The characters are a bit flat, but the MCs are very likeable and the story was very fast-paced and action-packed. I will continue the series!

[Still catching up on book reviews from last year.] I think I would have liked this book a lot more if I hadn't read so many dystopias in the last few years. But as it was, nothing about the plot was surprising or horrifying to me; I kept hoping for a twist that I didn't see coming, but it never c...

This book sounds like it was written for me. You've got your evil government and folks are hiding from the evil government. That's my thing....100%. So, this should have easily been a 5 star read. I'm not sure if it was the pacing or if I just couldn't connect to the characters as well as I had ...

Enjoyable as a quick, fast-paced novel, as long as you don't wonder too much about the world it's set in. I keep thinking I would've enjoyed it more had I read it when it was first published, and I hadn't become jaded with formulaic YA dystopian stories in the meantime (you just know what's going to...
