Dystopian discussion

Just write down what you're looking for here and people will come along and help!

This is mine: I love supernatural urban romance action/adventure young adult fantasy (i know, i know, it cant all be perfect like my description). Can anyone help me?

((Not to interrupt but if recommendations can be put in bold please, so they're easier to identify.))

The Name of The Star by Maureen Johnson

I'm currently reading this and the mystery is spectacular- It has tons of supernatural, some action, is somewhat YA and is totally fantasy. I'm sorry to note that the character is a bit underdeveloped ans stereotypical and the romance is nowhere near breathtaking-.- But it's pretty well written otherwise=)

Coolio thanks =) good thing i have that book

Yeah, The guy on the cover becomes even creepier though, as you read further- ican'teventouchthecoverrightnow

lolz that's how I am with my book after you told me what Arabelle's mom did to it O.O I'm so glad I can return it to the library now!
...angel kisses XD

XD SORRY!
So you see why we didn't tell you?
She disinfected it...

Proud- THE VENTS! omg XD

I know but still..spiders =P

I know! We checked though XDXDXD

XP I KNOW! EWW!

XD I don't even like him anymore and now he's just in her vents... XD

lol prolly calling "Hannah? Where are you? Get me down!" XD

"No, this is Lizzie."
"No, this is Patrick!"
XD

He's gonna starve up there, with Patrick on the phone! o.o

Lolz XD.

Do you have any books- besides anime or Maze Runner -.-
for me to read? I can't wait for Detergent to come out, so I need a good book series to begin!

I've heard The Fault in Our Stars is good, but I don't know what it's about.

I look into the others- thanks :)

You seriously assume I'll immediately recommend an anime or The Maze Runner? I'm ashamed of you. As a matter of fact, I do have some options---
-the Heroes of Olympus series by Rick Riordan: continuation series off Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I think you told me you started the first one and didn't like it or something (or maybe that was Arabelle...), but in any case, I encourage you to read them. The first one starts off a bit slow, but it gets better and awesomer as it goes on =).

-The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series by Michael Scott: About two twins who discover they are destined for great magical power by the alleged immortals themselves, Nicholas and Perenelle Flamel. There's a lot of rich history and mythology in these books, and I believe the second or third one is set in Paris, where Nicholas and Perenelle are from. The twins can get whiny at times, however, so sometimes you gotta breeze through their dialogue ;D.

-The 39 Clues series by Various Authors: Amy and her brother Dan are given a quest---along with their relatives---to compete for the secret to the greatest power in the world. Well, that's the general premise, but it evolves as the series goes on and more authors get involved. The first book is a bit slow, but not very long, as are the rest of them (the longest is 300-something), but the series gets better and better as the books go on. There are two spin-off series and one continuation series, and I recommend reading all of them! =D

-Maximum Ride series by James Patterson: Awesome, awesome, awesome series in which Max and her "flock" are part human, part bird, and all butt-kicking epicness. However, it's like the Mortal Instruments---the author could've left it as a trilogy, but he stuck five more books onto it. They kinda lose their butt-kickingness a bit because the fourth book is basically global warming propanganda crap and the books following are about defeating weirdoes that want to wipe out most (if not all) of the human race. But I still like the series =).

If you need more, let me know, but I think these, along with Anna's recs, will keep you busy for a while.

I WAS JUST SAYIIIINNNGGG


I began to read that series, but found it too different from the original..

I'll add it to my list :D

Jenna was reading those, but I thought they were for 5th graders such as she is since all of her friends were reading them too.

I'm not a big fan of Patterson.... But I will try them :)



THANSK

Don't say itttttt ;)

They are but yet they're sooo good =)

Cool

The first few are but they grow in maturity too. Even if they are for fifth graders I read them in seventh grade and loved them =).

I am kind of (he's either hit or miss) but these were great =)

You'er Welcoem ;D

FIIIIIIIIIIIIINE ;P

Welll, with Wicth and Wizard, I couldn't connect with either character nor could I follow the story line in the 2nd and 3rd book. SO I gave up in him

Hold on a little longer! ;D at least for the first three books of Max Ride series

Okokok XD
Ill give it a try

Yay! =D

try "Unwind" by Neal Schusterman. A really haunting look at the future. I listened to the audio book on my commute and it was excellent. Going to read the sequal "UnWholly" soon.

What is the genre?

It's dystopian/science fiction =). I heard it's really scary but interesting.

Cool- the I'll try it out =)

Probably not ;D

I will, too!

Lol okay. We should read it at the same time! =D

I'll add it tonight! (I kept forgetting!)

I have Unwind for some reason...my parents don't remember having it O.o

...hmm... 0.o

It's really creeepy considering what the book's about O.o

yes...

What book are you currently reading- did you finish the Outsiders?

Oh, btw;

I highly recommend The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton

It is amazing and puts your thoughts into a different perspective with the unclassified truth of what is and tis not a gang of sorts and who the bad guys really are. Definitely one of teh best books I've read. Go Greasers!

I'm reading Entwined by Heather Dixon. Really good so far!

The Outsiders was really awesome; I recommend it too! There's a lot of realism about what gangs/street kids go through, but don't let the "gang" thing scare you, it's a really heart-touching book. It also introduces some principles that are valuable to carry with you for the rest of your life =).

Idk I really liked variant by Robison wells. I'm trying to get the sequel, feedback, from the library.

Cool thanks for the rec =)

Yeah np

ok i got some EveUnwind im not sure if they are complete dystopian, but im reading them right now, and they are really good ;)

sorry they got messed up it was Eve
and Unwind

It's alright if they aren't completely dystopian, if you enjoyed a book and would like to share your passion for it with others, we're open for suggestions! I've read Eve and it was amazing! I haven't gotten the time to read the sequel, but it's at the top of my to do list!
What's unwind about?

THE KNIFE OF NEVER LETTING GO: was a really good book

Can u all send me some recommendations i need to catch up on my reading thank you.

OH YES IT WAS! I just finished it!
My Dystopian recommendations would be:
Eve by Anna Carey
The Declaration by Gemma Malley
BLOOD RED ROAD (OMG THIS WAS AMAZING!)
DARK REFLECTIONS ( <-- Long but literally the most original thing you'll ever come across!)
The Host by Stephanie Meyer (hate Twilight? No probs. This is so good.)

That's all I know. If you're interested in YA fantasy or Historical Fiction, I got other good things too!

Unwind is about 3 kids who are unwanted, or not needed in life. Sometime in the teenage years, they are sent to be unwinded. When you are unwound, you basically die, and all your body parts are taken and given to different people. Rita, Levi, and this other kid I forget the name, are the main characters.

Tyler, if you haven't read Divergent, you must! It is amazing! Others:
-The Hunger Games (duh ;P)
-Matched
-The Maze Runner
I'm trying not to repeat what others have recommended, but I've read some of those too and they're amazing! If you need any in other genres, let us know!

I heard it's awesome! I'll definitely read it sometime and let you know =).

I would like to read it- but I'm in the midst of a book report, a research paper (mind you that "paper" is not a singular, but rather MANY papers -.-), and all the other Homework I have, including a vocabulary test studying and an American History quiz- So I'll read it when I can! =D

Yes and yes! Those books are amazing! =D

Agreed! Eve is a good trilogy, and Blood Red Road is a trilogy in-the-making so you can be one of the first fans! The Knife of Never Letting Go is book one in another dystopian series.
