Dystopic future:
America the corrupt.
Sing a song for Rue.

This might be teen fiction, but it is the best kind of genre fiction: the kind that does not exclude people beyond its genre. I think most anyone would enjoy (and be moved by) this book. I plan to read the others in the series.

Sounds good. I look forward to reading it, too.
Loved it!
I feel quite behind because I haven’t read them yet, but every person I know that has read them has LOVED them. Has there been anything that’s set off the Melissa Alarm?
Also, according to thecapitol.pn I belong in District Two and I’m a stonemason. Okay.
thecapitol.pn is totally random. I’m in District 7 and a forester..
As you know, there are myriad things that set off the Melissa Alarms. None of those things happened in the book, except for a ton of vomiting, violent death, and abhorrent government corruption. Oh, and people/animals taking arrows in the eyes. Oh god, oh god, that was bad.
District 11 Gardener. I will be killed before I even get to the arena. Enjoy your lamb stew! (Bleh.)
Glad you liked it!
I see a video advertisement on your blog post…of some guy cooking?
And now it’s gone!
That might have been Randy. Did you see a Chemex?
I just finished book #2 and thought I was going to be disappointed because I accidentally read a spoiler… but it was a GREAT read and I’m starting book #3 as soon as I hit the submit button.
That is good to hear, because the last series I read (Girl with the Dragon Tattoo) went seriously downhill after the first book. 🙂
I don’t know I just don’t fancy it. I am giving it a miss. I must admit your description of arrows and a violent death did not much help in me wanting to read it more than before 😉
Did you finish it yet? I just enjoyed it as a very light read, but I thought it would be a good book for teens and even younger. Better than Twilight!
