“Don't make your life about the loss. Make it about the love.”

WOW.

I have been starting a lot of reviews like this lately but I think this is worthy of it being in all caps because….. WOW

I can’t express how annoyed I am that I haven’t picked this book up earlier than I have (Which I know my friend, Si is going to proceed to tell me that they had told me to read it).

It’s not often that a book that is hyped as much as this one lives up to it. To be honest, I think Legendborn deserves more praise than it gets. This has to be one of my favourite magic systems that I have read so far, it’s creative, unique and so unlike anything else I have read.

There are times when you read a book that you know is going to be a comfort read and Legendborn was one of them. Everything about this intrigued me and made me want more. 

Bree is the most fantastic protagonist and she is a force to be reckoned with. I loved that underneath the fantasy, this book also touched on serious topics such as grief and racism. 

I truly can’t get over how beautiful and well-written this book is. I am completely obsessed and I can’t wait to read the next book.
