Legend by Marie Lu

SYNOPSIS:  This story is told from two points of view:  that of Day, a wanted criminal to the Republic, who plays Robin Hood by stealing from the rich to give to the poor; and that of June, a brilliant Republic official who wants nothing more than to find her brother's killer.When they find themselves on opposite sides, they must sort what is true from the propaganda they are being given.

AUNT SHARON'S TAKE:  This was a fast-paced adventure story that kept me reading.  It did get a bit violent in places, and had some language content, but I would still recommend it to older readers.

AUDIENCE:  Young Adults

RATING:  PG13 for Violence

STARS:  3

BOOKS LIKE THIS:  Matched, Divergent
