Thanks Amanda, I totally understand your experience. Because I never thought of Shella City as similar to Hunger Games myself, but some of my readers did. HG is a visible dystopia with themes of violence. Shella City is a glamorous capitalist utopia where the "dystopian" side is hidden beneath, and it starts to appear on upcoming chapters. There is violence, yes, but later in the story. The main theme is the revolution that turns into war against Domainia and then events turn upside down and the plot speed up, but it's still not everybody's favorite type of story.
