*FEELS*

After finishing Paper Towns last night, I started reading Legend some time around midnight. And I stayed awake 'till 4 am just to finish it. And then I went on fanfiction.net and got spoiled for last book. I got so depressed with that ending that I cried myself to sleep. At 5:30 am.

At first, reading summary, I expected some clished read with a good girl falling in love with a guy she wasn't supposed to fall for. But it was so much more. Yeah, it got clishe elements like soldier falling in *FEELS*

After finishing Paper Towns last night, I started reading Legend some time around midnight. And I stayed awake 'till 4 am just to finish it. And then I went on fanfiction.net and got spoiled for last book. I got so depressed with that ending that I cried myself to sleep. At 5:30 am.

At first, reading summary, I expected some clished read with a good girl falling in love with a guy she wasn't supposed to fall for. But it was so much more. Yeah, it got clishe elements like soldier falling in love with an outcast, betraying him then helping him escape. That was expected. But it was packed with feelings and moments that simply melted my heart.

I bonded with Day so much through reading this book that I feel like I've known him for years. And I'm scared. I'm scared because he's going to get his heart broken because he loves so recklessly and wholy that it's just unavoidable. And June is going to be a bitch for doing that to him. My poor boy :(

At first, I hated June's view on people. Especially poor ones. It was like she was above all of them and that pissed me off. She watched them with discust, like they're animals. Even animals don't deserve to be watched like that. I was surprised to see that she didn't act like that with Day. Maybe 'cause she spent enough time on the streets to realise how hard life can get. And I'm happy she didn't do that to Day because, really, I don't think I could've forgiven that.

Day. My beautiful, sweet Day. He'd gone through so much loss at such young age. My heart hurts for him. And I think that reading Prodigy will ruin me. I can't bear to see him hurt.

I expected Thomas to be a part of the love triangle, but now I know that Marie Lu has someone totally different for that part. But I don't expect it to be a real love triangle where June doesn't know who'd she choose. At least, I hope so. I woudn't be able to stand it if that happens.

This book is one of the rare ones that made me feel like I felt last night reading it. It will always be close to my heart and I'm not ashamed to say that I'm going to cry after every page in the next one. Now, off to the Divergent series!

Why'd you do it John????

It was a very good book. I loved the story how bad and good fall in love. The only problem was there was no ending really. What happens to them? They are on the run, but what happens? Do they ever get married, have kids? How about the Government. What happens there, now that there secrets are known? ...more

It was great reading about Day and June the way the book was written makes easy to follow the story and it becomes a great fast reading sometimes is easy to predict what is coming but in the end this series with the romance and mystery surrounding it is sure to become a favorite
