It annoyed me so much that I put it on hold and never went back to it. But most people seem to have liked it even more than Legend. <br />I guess neither of us will be continuing this one.<br />Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-74809869285640031972013-03-06T20:13:03.593-06:002013-03-06T20:13:03.593-06:00Aww, sorry this one didn't work out for you. I...Aww, sorry this one didn't work out for you. I read this ages ago, and I do think if I'd read it after all of the other dystopians that have come out since it's publication I might have been harder on it. But I will say Prodigy is a much better story than Legend. The sequel definitely outclasses book one. If you ever do change your mind and come back to the series, I hope you'll enjoy that one.

I'm not a huge fan of the genre to begin with and don't deal well with the slow-paced ones.

The last one you read I liked you gave 1 star so I'm not recommending ANYTHING! I haven't read this one yet, but it's pretty high on my list. So sorry it wasn't what you were expecting!

I am sorry it wasn't as great for you.

It doesn't seem to stand out from others in the genre. It sounds fun enough but I don't know if it's interesting enough to tempt me. Although I did meet Marie Lu at BEA and she was super nice. Kind of makes me want to read the books.Alison Can Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908868606441539344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-33870855799787963392013-03-05T09:20:06.239-06:002013-03-05T09:20:06.239-06:00There's an inner panel of the book that basica...There's an inner panel of the book that basically spoils the entire story? That's no good. Normally spoilers don't bother me all that much, but I just yesterday was on Goodreads and someone typed in huge capital letters a massive spoiler for the book I was about to read and that was definitely irritating. The first line of their review was the spoiler, right there for everyone to see. Awesome. I wonder if your reaction would have been any different had you not read that panel first?Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.com
