A review by christene_littlelibrary
Legendborn by Tracy Deonn

5.0

idk why I didn't read this before but this book is one of the promising series I've read. it's not only focus on the cliche YA fantasy genre but it also speaks on some real issues of society such as racism, gender criticism, trauma, oppression, culture, ancestry and dealing with grief (as a Therapist in real life it is rare for YA fantasy to tackle such topics, and I love how the MC deals with the lost of a parent.). This book is wholesome!

Will surely wait for the next book!

If you're into YA Fantasy, this book is highly recommended!

SpoilerFav Quotes:
"Don't make your life about the loss. Make it about the love.”

"The most important thing you can do in this world, the most necessary thing, is to survive it. You can't do anything for anyone else if you don't take care of yourself first.”

Some truths only tragedy can teach. The first one I learned is that when people acknowledge your pain, they want your pain to acknowledge them back. They need to witness it in real time, or else you're not doing your part.”
