As far as dystopians go, Legend rates among the top of all the ones I’ve read. There was plenty of action; not once did I get bored, because there was little to no lull in the plot. Something exciting was always happening! Danger and suspense abound; secrets, lies and government corruption! Oh my! It was everything I love in a dystopian novel (and why it’s one of my favorite genres). In my mind, I make a silent promise to my brother’s killer: […]

While I still enjoyed this one, the series has been going slightly downhill since the first book. I gave Hush, Hush 4.5 starfish, Crescendo 4 starfish, now this one 3.5…. I don’t have a whole lot to say about this book because honestly I feel like there wasn’t much to it. There was hardly anything happening plot-wise. Most of it was Nora trying to get her memories back – which was extremely frustrating for me as a reader, because I already knew everything […]

First of all, this book is NOT about the Underworld. It’s about a girl who spends 20 minutes in the Underworld then spends the rest of the story adjusting to life after a NDE (near death experience). I cannot express how disappointed I am that the Underworld parts were so tiny. There were far too many things that were either absurd or made absolutely no sense. 1) John’s age didn’t add up. When she was in the cemetery for her […]

So, this is the second time I’ve read this book….and I remembered absolutely nothing. I mean, I could remember bits and pieces, but all of the important stuff? Gone. So it was kind of like reading this for the first time again. I felt disappointed with this the first time….I don’t know why, because it was really good the second time! Not quite as good as Hush, Hush was, but there were so many twists and surprises that I was […]
