WIJFR: Champion by Marie Lu (ns)

I don't think I've ever posted a "WIJFR" on this board before, but I am so thrilled that I had to share.  Just finshed Champion by Marie Lu.  It. Was. AWESOME!  If you like action-packed books full of awesomeness, the kind of books that hook you in and don't let you stop reading until you finish, I highly recommend this trilogy.  This series has everything - corrupt government, prison break, revenge, sacrifice, espionage, true love, and a kick-ass teenage heroine and hero.  If you've been looking for an exciting YA dystopia since the Hunger Games/Divergent, this is it.  The first book of the series is Legend

  • I just finished it last night!  This series is amazing and I can't believe it doesn't get more love.  This is how a YA/Dystopian series SHOULD be written, consistent all the way through.

  • I'm going to have to get on this one too. It's still only $5 for Kindle right now. Anyone listened to it? I might get to it sooner if I do it on audiobook.

  • I loved the first 2 books in the series, I just have to find time to get around to Champion.  I'm glad the hear it is good!  I think when books get less hype the authors feel less pressure to preform and those series often turn out better.
