First look at Prodigy

 



   The book Prodigy is the second book of a series of three books that had won the New York Times bestseller twice. The cover looks good so why not read it? after all, if the book as a good cover, it is probably good, most of the time. I had read a little about this book and I had only reached page 100 out of the 374 pages it has, so I am putting my self in something that is going to take much of my time that I don't have😓. 

       Prodigy is about a kind of America that is divided into the colonies and the republic. Day and June (both the protagonist of the book) come from different places. Day comes from a poor family with his older sibling, mother and young brother until he is taken by the police after he got a bad score on the national test to work for the republic before he became one of the republic most wanted criminal. June in the other hand, she is a rich prodigy for the nation, someone that got a 100% score in which Day had failed and studies in one of the most prestige colleges at the age of 16. All of this changes when they met, going from enemies to lovers and  deciding to leave to the colonies while both being hunted by the republic.                         


          I have a long amount of pages and a book to read before being able to know what happens  (I skipped there first book😅) so a lot of things don't really make sense but the book sounds interesting. I will probably read the first book and the ones that follow it, event though I don't know when I am going to read them...but I will, I think.

    Hey Fermin, I fell in love with the entire trilogy a couple years back, so I encourage you to start over and read the whole series; you won't regret it.

    I read this book a while back, so I don't remember much about it. But you should definitely read the first book! It will give a lot more context on how the Republic works (and in my opinion, is better than this one). But you should definitely read the whole series, and I recommend reading other books written by Marie Lu as well, including the Warcross duology!

    Hi Fermin, the contrasts between the main characters seems like it creates an interesting narrative. Do you have any favorite parts of the book from what you have read? Nice post!

    I read the first book, Legend, in seventh grade. I can say it wasn't particularly my favorite, but then again it was for school, and it isn't that fun when no one else cares. I might try to reread it sometime, but dystopian is really not my beat.
