Legend - Marie Lu

In a dystopian world, what was once the USA is now home to the Republic. The republic is at constant war with its neighbours. June is a wealthy 15 year old prodigy that was born into an elite family. She is being groomed for success in the Republic's highest military circles. In stark contrast is Day and he happens to be the Republic's most wanted criminal. He was born in the slums and is believed to be very dangerous but perhaps his motives for murder aren't as malicious as they seem.

June and Day couldn't be further apart in their upbringings and there is no reason why they should meet...until June's brother is murdered and Day is the number one suspect.

This book is full of action, suspense and romance. An emotional roller coaster and thriller.
