I'd read Legendborn when it first came out, and decided it was time for a reread.

I loved this book. The characters are all well fleshed-out and have reasonable motivations and goals, and I felt like I was a part of the story, experiencing every little thing with the characters. (Just ask literally anyone I was around; they can testify to all my reactions xD.) The plot was facinating, and whenever I wasn't listening, I yearned to experience more of the story. There were some unexpected twists (some that I didn't even see coming my second read-through, which annoyed me a little). The suspense of Bree's quest to learn more about her mother's death, and Bree's exploration into the worlds of magic certainly helped in making me want more and more. All in all, it's a great book! Go read it!
