Legend: Two Week Update

 I have thoroughly enjoyed reading Legend  thus far.  The characters and the plot are starting to develop, and the action is picking up steam. Marie Lu's craft really gives more detail and liveliness to each individual scene, as if she was the director and special effects artist. I will now give my recall of the last few chapters.

------------------------------------------
SPOILER ALERT
------------------------------------------

Day and June's two worlds have collided. Day was stealing plague medicine from a hospital to cure his family. When attempting to escape, he confronts June's brother, Metias, and ends up killing him. Now Day is being hunted down by June, who is thirsty for revenge.

June has been promoted to a team dedicated to finding Day, the Republic's most wanted criminal. Using all of her knowledge and skill acquired from military training, she sets up a trap to get some information out of  Day. Disguised as a black market dealer, she tells Day that she has plague medicine. He doesn't fall for the bait and instead contacts her over radio. But June still can figure out what sector of the Republic he is from, the state he was born in and his location just based off how Day is talking. The line is cut and the hunt begins for the most wanted criminal of the Republic.

These couple of chapters really got me excited for the book. The suspense and cleverness inspires me too. Ill post next Friday and give you another update on this amazing book.
