<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">City of Glass is an action-packed and a breathtaking read. There's so much action going on that I really enjoyed compared to the first two books. All of my questions and the mysteries has been answered in this book which is great and it made me contented.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The other thing that I liked from this book is that there are emotional parts. Cassandra Clare did not focus only on the action-scenes and stuff but also she mixed it with other elements that made the book perfect. By reading this book we know that there are so many things that has been revealed such as [1] Jace and Clary are not brother and sister after all which made me happy [2] Jace's real father was Stephen Herondale and [3] Sebastian is the real Jonathan Christopher Morgenstern. I'm now even more excited to read the other books from TMI and also The Infernal Devices.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The ending was satisfying! They defeat Valentine and the shadowhunters and the downworlders help each other to fight and it is by the help of Clary's power, she created a new rune for a shadowhunter to have a downworlder power and vice-versa. How cool is that?!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Since I'm reading the shadowhunter chronicles by publication date, I'm now looking forward to reading the first book from The Infernal Devices trilogy (A prequel to The Mortal Instruments) which is entitled Clockwork Angel.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Clary Fray just wishes that her life would go back to normal. But what's normal when you're a demon-slaying Shadowhunter, your mother is in a magically induced coma, and you can suddenly see Downworlders like werewolves, vampires, and faeries? Clary would love to spend more time with her best friend, Simon. But the Shadowhunters won't let her go--especially her handsome, infuriating newfound brother, Jace. And Clary's only chance to help her mother is to track down rogue Shadowhunter Valentine, who is probably insane, certainly evil--and also her father. When the second of the Mortal Instruments os stolen, the terrifying Inquisitor suspects Jace. Could Jace really be willing to betray everything he believes in to help their father?</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">This book is much better than City of Bones and the pacing was good. I managed to finished this book in only two days because it is so entertaining.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">I really like the characters even more in City of Ashes. Not only they've improved but also they are more funnier that makes everything lighter. Knowing that Clary and Jace are "siblings" makes me want to read more because I know it's just a lie but still, there's no revelation from this book that they are not really brother and sister. *sighs* It did not affect my rating though.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">At first I thought that there's no actions/bad-ass moments going on but I'm wrong. After the middle part, I can say that it is more action-packed than the first book. The scene were they fight Valentine and the demons on the ship are the best! It is so epic and it made me hold my breath. On the same scene, the inquisitor/Imogen Herondale have something important to say to Jace but then she dies afterwards. I mean what??!! What is it about? It keeps me intrigued.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">I love how every characters have pov's from themselves and not in a confusing way. It's really a great idea that Cassandra Clare made because I myself wants to know more about most of them and what they are doing. Overall, this is a great sequel to City of Bones and much better! I'm so excited to read the third book because I heard from many people that City of Glass is greatest book from the mortal instruments series.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder― much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing―not even a smear of blood―to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know... </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.</span></span><br />

The world was cool and enchanting because there are werewolves, vampires, fairies, warlocks in just one story. (AND SHADOWHUNTERS!!!)</span></div>

I'm looking forward to reading the other books in The Mortal Instruments series because I heard that it's keeps getting better and better. I am even more excited because ABC Family picks up the Mortal Instruments tv series. I'm so stoked!</span></div>

He heads off to the sometimes crazy, possibly unstable, and anything-but-boring world of Culver Creek Boarding School, and his life becomes the opposite of safe. Because down the hall is Alaska Young. The gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, self-destructive, screwed-up, and utterly fascinating Alaska Young, who is an event unto herself. She pulls Pudge into her world, launches him into the Great Perhaps, and steals his heart.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><strong style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">After.</strong><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"> Nothing is ever the same.</span></span><br />

<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">I never thought at first that this book was funny. When I'm on the first part, almost all of the pages will make you smile and laugh because the characters - Miles, The Colonel, Takumi, Lara, and Alaska are very funny and it makes me want to join in their group.</span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">The second part, however, contains drama and it is the part where you get emotional and stuff. </span></div>

He's quiet, he loves reading, and hates sports. That's why I enjoy the story even more! Let's move on with Alaska Young. I feel sad for her because she's been hard on herself and Alaska's decisions were based on her roller-coaster emotions.</span></span></span></div>

He is such a great writer and his works can make you laugh and be inspired at the same time. This is my 3rd John Green book that I have ever read and I'm so excited to read his other books. He never fail to impress me.</span></div>

At first, I'm enjoying it because the world was cool and Cinder being a cyborg really intrigued me. It was okay and I thought that the characters from this book are funny. But when I reached the middle part, I already knew that Cinder and (spoiler) are the same person.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So first let us talk about the concept of the story. The waking-up-to-another-body thing is very new to me and I think to the young adult fiction too and it's the reason why I'm so intrigued about this book. After I finished it, I knew the concept of Every Day was cool and heart breaking at the same time. If I were A, the main character, surely I will get crazy because you wake up to a different body and with different family and friends of course.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">A, the main character, is very strong and patient. I salute him for being so optimistic and because he is contented of what his life is going to be and he already accepted the bittersweet reality at the very beginning. However, I have a problem with his attitude sometimes because he keep telling to Rhiannon, the one he loves, that their relationship will work which is clearly not possible because of A's situation but at the end of the book he realizes that so it didn't affect my ratings because this book is just, AMAZING. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Now let us talk about Rhiannon. She is a very good character despite that A is in love with her and can't be in the same body everyday. She supports him because that is the right thing to do, Rhiannon wants A to experience to live a normal life as everyone does and to love...to love her. Rhiannon is also truthful to their complicated relationship which I really like, that it can't work because A will never be in the same body everyday and what if he wakes up in the other side of the world? It is so sad :(</span></div>

The ending gave me so much feels but I know it's just the right thing.

IT IS BRILLIANT. I will read his other books as soon as I can because he is a great writer. For all readers out there, not just young adults, you guys should really read this book because you will learn good things from this book! You will never regret reading it.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This book is a perfect blend of Paranormal and Romance. The love/romance going on with Mara and Noah was incredibly fantastic while the creepiness are still present while Mara Dyer is hallucinating and stuff. When I was in the middle of the book, I thought the paranormal aspect was left out but when I reached the second half, I was wrong. The last half of this book is the most creepiest which I liked.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I don't have much to say about the characters but I think they are actually good especially Mara Dyer and Noah Shaw.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The plot itself is very intriguing and mysterious that's why i can't put down this book because I want to know more! Even though The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer is dark and paranormal, Michelle Hodkin did not forget to put a smile on my face or laugh because of some funny things.</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 18px;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">The ending was a cliffhanger. Too bad I still don't have the book 2 because I really need to read more from Mara Dyer!</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 18px;">As I said, Michelle Hodkin's writing style was fantastic it made me not want to put the book down. It was fast - paced and I finished this book for only 2 days which is not fast enough compared to the other readers but for me it's good because I usually read a book for 3 days - 1 week if I'm not that busy. For those who haven't read it yet, please read it now! You don't want to miss the world of Mara Dyer ;)</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Immediately, I have to figure out who I am. It's not just the body - opening my eyes and discovering whether the skin on my arm is light or dark, whether my hair is long or short, whether I'm fat or thin, boy or girl, scarred or smooth. The body is the easiest thing to adjust to, if you're used to waking up in a new one each morning. It's the life, the context of the body, that can be hard to grasp.</span></span></div>

Then the body disappears into thin air. It's hard to call the police when the murderers are invisible to everyone else and when there is nothing―not even a smear of blood―to show that a boy has died. Or was he a boy?<br /><br />This is Clary's first meeting with the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know...<br /><br />Exotic and gritty, exhilarating and utterly gripping, Cassandra Clare's ferociously entertaining fantasy takes readers on a wild ride that they will never want to end.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px; text-align: left;"> </span></span></div>

Because down the hall is Alaska Young. The gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, self-destructive, screwed-up, and utterly fascinating Alaska Young, who is an event unto herself.

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Twelve thousand years ago, they came. They descended from the sky amid smoke and fire, and created humanity and gave us rules to live by. They needed gold and they built our earliest civilizations to mine it for them. When they had what they needed, they left. But before they left, they told us someday they would come back, and when they did, a game would be played. A game that would determine our future.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">This is Endgame.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">For ten thousand years the lines have existed in secret. The 12 original lines of humanity. Each had to have a Player prepared at all times. They have trained generation after generation after generation. In weapons, languages, history, tactics, disguise assassination. Together the players are everything: strong, kind, ruthless, loyal, smart, stupid, ugly, lustful, mean, fickle, beautiful, calculating, lazy, exuberant, weak. They are good and evil. Like you. Like all.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">This is Endgame.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">When the game starts, the players will have to find three keys. The keys are somewhere on earth. The only rule of their Endgame is that there are no rules. Whoever finds the keys first wins the game. Endgame: The Calling is about the hunt for the first key. And just as it tells the story of the hunt for a hidden key, written into the book is a puzzle. It invites readers to play their own Endgame and to try to solve the puzzle. Whoever does will open a case filled with gold. Alongside the puzzle will be a revolutionary mobile game built by Google’s Niantic Labs that will allow you to play a real-world version of Endgame where you can join one of the lines and do battle with people around you.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Will exuberance beat strength? Stupidity top kindness? Laziness thwart beauty? Will the winner be good or evil? There is only one way to find out.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Play.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Survive.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Solve.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">People of Earth.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Endgame has begun.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Let's talk about the characters. There are people who are chosen to be a player in Endgame. They're 12. These people will have to find the first key also called Earth Key. The one who wins will be saved from death and also the people from his/her line. The characters especially Sarah Alopay, Jago Tlaloc, Chiyoko Takeda are so badass and skilled because right from the beginning of their lives they are practicing to fight for Endgame.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">All of the 12 players have their own POVs in this book which is good, for us to know their journey and their plans as the story unfolds but sometimes I felt confused because they're so many and at the same time their names are hard to memorize and weird. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Our future is unwritten What will be will be.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is the first big book that I have ever read and it took me a month to finish this not because it's just big but also because when I read Endgame, I became addicted to TV shows. This book is amazing, intriguing, action-packed and a page-turner because it is so good and there are many scenes from the book that made my heart beating so fast! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">They said that this is a Hunger Games copy but I think it's false and not true because even though there are elements that are the same, after I finished reading it I thought that these two are quite different because Endgame is more dark for me and the setting is not just in a place. It's so fun and interesting to follow the players progress as they travel to every different countries they have gone to.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The finale was intense and shocking. I am thrilled. I couldn't stop reading in the last thirty pages because of excitement and I want to know more. Now that the Earth Key has found, the first part of Endgame was done, what will happens next? Is the second part will be bloody as the first book? I really want to read the second book now but unfortunately it it not yet announced.</span></div>

<i><span style="color: blue;"> </span><span style="color: cyan;">MY REVIEW:</span></i></div>
<div class="separator" style="font-size: x-large; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I watched the Insurgent Movie the first day it came out here in the Philippines last March 18, 2015. The movie was okay, not that good though as the movie adaptation of Divergent. I know now why most of the people who watched it don't like it very much and others hate it. The movie is very different from the book, not that it is only squeezed into a 2 hour film, but because they changed many things that somehow also changes the plot line. It focuses on the box thing that can be opened by the divergents which is clearly not in the book.</span><div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let's talk about the actors. Shailene Woodley (as Tris Prior) and Theo James (as Tobias Eaton) portrayed their characters very well, also Miles Teller (as Peter), Ansel Elgort (as Caleb Prior) and the others. The good thing is we had Uriah now on Insurgent that the divergent fans awaited because his character did not show up on the first movie. I got disappointed to see that <span style="line-height: 115%;">Marlene
</span><span style="line-height: 115%;"> </span><span style="line-height: 115%;">don't have much impact on the movie
because she only have few scenes and then she dies. When I read the book, I
thought that Marlene will have a big role in this movie but she's not*sighs*.</span>
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;">I
still have my favorite scenes though. One is the part when Shailene (Tris) took
the truth serum and told her secrets to the people at Candor and the other one
is when they finally opened the box and saw the message from a woman in a hologram which is Edith Prior in the book. They should have added the line of Edith revealing her name because it would be more interesting to the viewers.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 18.3999996185303px;">As a reader of books and I have read the book of Insurgent by Veronica Roth, I kinda felt </span></span><span style="font-size: large;">disappointed and not contented of the book-to-movie adaption of Insurgent but at the same time, I'm not hating it too. I think for the other people who don't read the book they should feel amazed and contented at some point because they don't really know what </span><span style="font-size: large;">happened in Insurgent.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, we have to wait another year for the third book, Allegiant, to become a movie and the news said it will split into two parts. Hope it will be greater than Insurgent hopefully.... </span></div>

June is back in the good graces of the Republic, working within the government’s elite circles as Princeps-Elect, while Day has been assigned a high-level military position. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">But neither could have predicted the circumstances that will reunite them: just when a peace treaty is imminent, a plague outbreak causes panic in the Colonies, and war threatens the Republic’s border cities. This new strain of plague is deadlier than ever, and June is the only one who knows the key to her country’s defense. But saving the lives of thousands will mean asking the one she loves to give up everything. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">With heart-pounding action and suspense, Marie Lu’s bestselling trilogy draws to a stunning conclusion.</span></span><br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">So first things first. This book was absolutely epic and heartbreaking at the same time. Champion would be my favorite book in the legend trilogy. I can't handle the feels.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">I can say that this is a perfect way to end a dystopian trilogy even though it's bittersweet but atleast the main characters alive ;) </span></span><br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">This book was so </span><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">intriguing that it makes me entertain at some point. The plague, the patriots</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">, the Antarticans.... Man! the Antarticans system is really cool, you will get yourself points when you do something great.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">I really love how the characters, especially June and Day, improves till the last book. They have strong and badass characteristics and it grows even more, I like that. On the other hand, my favorite scene would be the last part when June started praying for Day's life, even when there will be consequences that will happen, June's okay with that. She just want to let Day lives.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">I actually got a little bit spoiled on Champion, I thought someone will die but I'm wrong. Thanks to God. I was so happy that no main character dies in this book. But still, my heart couldn't handle the feels when June knew that her prayer was answered and she also must sacrifice something... Day had complications on his brain, he still remember his family and Eden but not June. It is so sad :(</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">The last sentence of this book which June and Day told their names with each other once again, and know that that was the last words from Champion, broke my heart.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">Oh Marie Lu, thank you for writing an amazing trilogy. Legend trilogy is now one of my favorite books of all time! I will never forget June and Day. I will miss them so much.

<b><span style="font-size: large;">MY REVIEW</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It started a little slow for me at first but when when I reached the half...not anymore! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It started when June and Day arrives in Vegas after they escaped at the Republic. They joins a group of Patriot rebels to help Day rescue his brother, but there's one condition Razor (the leader of the patriots) requested. To kill the new elector. Of course, they accepted the condition so that the patriots will help Day rescue his brother Eden. June and Day are kinda shocked because they will kill Anden (the new elector of the republic; son of the previous elector) soon and at first they thought that it was not easy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">As the story continues, the patriots planned on how to get the assassination done. June will act that she knows all of the patriots plans and she will let Anden know for her to be trusted. And it worked.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I really liked the part when June and Anden met and they talked about many things and Anden being nice. Then suddenly, June realizes that Anden is nothing like his father. I am so happy about that because finally, the republic will change into something better.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My favorite part from this book would probably be June on a lie detector test. Isn't it cool because she lied about other things and one of that is being loyal to the republic. She said she is still loyal and the lie detector said it's the truth. But is June really lying about what she said? or not?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The last part is so bittersweet. I just can't accept that Day founds out that he got a problem. He is dying. And June needs to leave him because she promoted at a higher rank. Ahhhh the feels.......</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I really loved this book! Full of action-packed scenes. June stands out in this book because of her strength and I liked it! It was fast-paced and a great read. Marie Lu did it again :) Her writing style is perfect but I do get bored at times when the part of too much describing at things but still the book turned out great!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><i><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">What was once the western United States is now home to the Republic, a nation perpetually at war with its neighbors. Born into an elite family in one of the Republic's wealthiest districts, fifteen-year-old June is a prodigy being groomed for success in the Republic's highest military circles. Born into the slums, fifteen-year-old Day is the country's most wanted criminal. But his motives may not be as malicious as they seem.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">From very different worlds, June and Day have no reason to cross paths - until the day June's brother, Metias, is murdered and Day becomes the prime suspect. Caught in the ultimate game of cat and mouse, Day is in a race for his family's survival, while June seeks to avenge Metias's death. But in a shocking turn of events, the two uncover the truth of what has really brought them together, and the sinister lengths their country will go to keep its secrets.</span></i></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: inherit; font-size: large; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">June Iparis, the Republic's Prodigy and an elite student at Drake University, is a smart, brave and a skilled fighter and known for her perfect 1,500 score on her trial. Then something unexpected happens. Her brother, Metias Iparis, got killed and the main suspect is Day - a famous criminal in the republic. I knew that it was going to happen when Metias said to June this statement (I noted this), "Forever and every, kid, until you're sick and tired of seeing me". At first I'm not that affected on Metias' death but suddenly as the story unfolds, it gives me sadness a little bit.</span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #181818; font-size: large; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">June and Day are similar to each other than I ever think of. They are brave, </span></span><span style="color: #181818; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 19.3199996948242px;">intelligent, skilled fighters, loyal and they just fighting for themselves and for their rights. </span></span><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0); font-size: large;">They are both great main characters and badass in a good way. They have strong personality on the outside but after all the problems they've gone through, June and Day still have a good heart.</span></div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #181818; font-family: Helvetica Neue Light, HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 19.31999969482422px;"><br /></span></span>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue Light', HelveticaNeue-Light, helvetica, arial, sans-serif; font-size: large; line-height: 19.31999969482422px;">For me, the dual point of view is brilliant! The story became more understandable and not boring. And the colored text of Day's pov is cool yet it helps the readers not to feel confused of what povs they are reading. My favorite scence will be the most full action-packed because that's the thing I really want. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I heard nothing but great things about the Marie Lu's trilogy, so reading Legend give me high hopes and after all it never disappoints me. I really enjoyed this book and I thought it was well written! For those who loves dystopian and action packed book, Legend is for you!!! I recommend this book to the other Young Adult readers though.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">So basically, Katy and Daemon is the main characters in this book. I really love their attitudes in the book. Katy's having a blog is really relatable because I have a blog too, you will know if you're reading this 'cause this is my blog (huh lol), while Daemon's being not-kind to Katy but eventually shows his good side at the middle part of the book is just so mainstream but it helps though with the story line as him being an Alien.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Obsidian keeps you turn pages because it's so mysterious that you have to know what next and you cannot put it down. The books gets so much better at the point that Katy's discovered that Daemon is not a human but an alien. </span><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/4476934.Jennifer_L_Armentrout" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Jennifer Armentrout</a><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">'s writing style is so great that it makes this book so easy to read even though it's Fantasy/ Paranormal.</span></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My favorite scene in the book would be the part when Katy's running away to the road from Daemon at night and she would have been killed by a truck but Daemon is there to save by using his powers, alien powers, to stop the truck from hitting Katy. I have another favorite scene too which is Katy and Daemon are helping each other to fight the other aliens that are not nice and the only thing they had to defeat the bad aliens is what they called "Obsidian" - a stone/crystal; a crystal used to fight the bad aliens based on this book.</span></div>
</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall thoughts: This book is so fast-paced, so entertaining and fun. I recommend Obsidian to all the YA readers out there! :)</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"> <b><i>Book Reader Since...</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It all started with The Hunger Games movie. Once I saw that movie (not exactly on the release date, it was 2013) and thought that it was amazing, I googled it and found out that it was a book one of a trilogy written by Suzanne Collins. Since I decided that The Hunger Games was one of my favorite movies, I said to myself, " Why not read the books? " then I read them. I read the hunger games books on ebook platform, and I don't have the physical copy until now ( I don't know why XD ). I can say that I become a bookworm/book reader when I bought my first ever book, it was The Maze Runner by James Dashner and then now, I have 20 physical copy of books (not that bad right?). </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i> Favorite Books </i></b></span><br />
