The Darkest Legacy by Alexandra Bracken Review

37688046

This book picks about 5 years after In The Afterlight. Zu is now 17, and has become the spokesperson for the government, helping give Psi kids the same rights as everyone else. She is accused of committing an act, she definitely didn't do, she is forced to go on the run once again, only this time with strangers. Zu finds herself on the run with two not very trusty worthy allies, Roman and Priyanka. As Zu travels, she grows closer to people she knows she shouldn't trust, meanwhile uncovering even darker things happening right underneath the government's watchful eye. Zu must again fight against forces who try to make Psi run back into hiding and save her friends.

Roman, whom I love, and his and Priyanka's friendship, is adorable. I liked the quips between the three and especially when Liam entered the story. I liked how the relationship with Zu and Roman didn't happen until 400 or so pages into the book, it kept you hoping for something to happen between the two.

I liked the story line of them starting off by trying to clear Zu's name and ending up having to find Liam and Ruby. I was thrilled to see Liam finally appear the the story! Vida, Chubs and Zu's relationship is just extremely heart- warming. I also enjoyed the flip between timelines, they were important to the story.

One thing, I did not like was the ending, it felt rushed and I didn't understand why Roman was staying back with Lana, it wasn't conveyed very well. I wanted Roman and Zu's reunion to be more joyous, even though they were only apart two weeks. 

I'm honestly read sad this book is over, and as must I didn't enjoy the other books in this world, I'm disappointed I won't get to see anything else.
