Legend / Marie Lu / 305 pgs.

Another Dystopian YA novel, but this one has an element of romance.  This time North America is split into two Warring Nations; with one powerful dictatorship trying to overthrow the other.  In California, Government soldier and child prodigy June is hired to capture the infamous criminal named Day.  June and Day, play a cat and mouse game matching wits, until they are thrown together and will have to learn to trust each other in order to survive.  Lots of action, strong male and female characters, and a star-crossed romance.  This is another series that deserves to be made into a movie.
