Customer Reviews

One of my all time favorites

I read this in middle school, and 5 out of 5 I loved this series through and through. I have a habit of getting to invest in my books and I didn't read for a little while after finishing this series. I had to sit with this story for a minute.

Enjoyed Legend struggling with the sequel.

I was really intrigued by the premise of these novels and I found Legend an enjoyable read. I'm about half way through Prodigy and I haven't been able to get into it. It feels like a preteen smut novel the few moments of kissy romance talk in the first novel have grown to take over the entire story , like we get it they're hormone charged 15 year olds can we get back to the story now? Will try to finish it but not sure I'll even bother reading the third novel...

Engaging!

Normally, I struggle with 2nd books in a trilogy - or at least they have the tendency to be my least favorite. However, I enjoyed Prodigy more than Legend.

Quality didn't match

I ordered a "good" but it came looking like the top had been drenched in water and then dried all wavy and weird. There were weird puncture marks in some of the pages towards the end. I feel like it shouldn't have been "good" and is more like "acceptable." Disappointing but it's not the end of the world.

For very good it wasn't all that

I borrowed this book from a friend and it was great! I wanted one of my own. I ordered prodigy and I was positive I ordered paperback but they gave me hardcover. I was looking forward to legend, prodigy, champion, and rebel all matching as paperbacks but guess not! The cover of the book looked bumped up and not "very good" quality but the pages and back are intact. Anyway, it was okay overall.

I loved it

This Book it's so good. I loved June and Day. I recommend it.
