Some people say that this novella was unnecessary, boring, or something or other, mainly because people KNOW about Day and June's childhood. People think that novellas are all about getting to learn something new about a certain character, or, finding out that an antagonist isn't so bad after all, etc, etc. Come on, guys. This is Life BEFORE Legend. The 0.5 novella? Even if it didn't contain information that we didn't already know, it was still a fun and short read-- besides, it helps quench one's thirst in the process of waiting for Champion. omg.
YES, GUYS. THIS IS DEFINITELY WORTH READING. CHECK IT OUT!
