I also prefer it to Hunger Games, though by a micrometer. XD

Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) I have Divergent coming up next month for a buddy read, so I'll be back in here then.

My second favorite dystopian book after Hunger Games is Unwind (Unwind, #1) by Neal Shusterman .

Wither (The Chemical Garden, #1) by Lauren DeStefano was good but not great, and Matched (Matched, #1) by Ally Condie was sort of barely okay...kind of boring until the end of the book when it picked up.

Uglies was another series that was just okay for me. I never bothered with the third book.

I hear that the Chaos Walking trilogy is as good as Hunger Games if you read all 3 books to understand the full story, but I only read the first book and had a hard time with it. Everyone tells me I'll be a huge fan if I ever pick up the second book.

Do you recommend Matched then? Is it worth reading?


Stacia (the 2010 club) (stacia_r) Eh. I don't regret reading the book and will read the second book to see where the series goes, but I can't say it was all that good either. I think Unwind is way better and Wither is a little bit better. If you want a more girly dystopia, I'd pick Wither over Matched.


Natshane | 49 comments Oh :( Well I thought of reading it but I hate a really slow start. I think I'm gonna pick the other two first.


Alysse (tiger_tiger) | 33 comments I liked Matched better than wither, personally, but all of the those books are pretty good.


CαthεεBooks (catheehales) I loved Divergent, and it reminded me a bit of The Hunger Gmaes (THG) I liked Matched, Wither, and lots of other dystopians like The Giver and The Chosen One.


Parvathy | 93 comments Please give me your opinion about The Giver. I am confused about what to read next. I have both Wither and The Giver for consideration. I don't know which one to choose. They both seem like interesting books.


Natshane | 49 comments That is the first time I heard about the Giver.


Parvathy | 93 comments The Giver (The Giver, #1) by Lois Lowry is a book byLois Lowry. I found this when surfing through one of goodreads list of YA books.It has a number of positive reviews.


Natshane | 49 comments Oh, well I've seen this book around on GR.

I liked the two.
If you want a fast and easy read; The Giver.
If you watn a slow and dark read; Wither.

Thanks, I think I will start with Wither since I am looking for a darker dystopian series

I started Matched and I just could no get throught it...Unwind looks really good but in a creepy way. I loved the Hunger Games and I can't wait to start reading Divergent.


☼Marian☼ (mgdc) Loved it!

Delirium was better, but I liked DIVERGENT TOO.
