Dead Is and Hex Hall aren't really considered dystopian...
-Matched (though, I must warn you, the second one sucks)
-Uglies series
-everything Hannah said =D


message 4: by Hannah (new)

Hannah Still good books, though... I just gave her my fav series, so.... I just gave her a list of books containing various genres for her to read and enjoy:))


message 5: by Hannah (last edited Sep 11, 2012 01:37PM) (new)

Hannah Omg the second Matched book really wasn't even needed to be written! The first was good though and I have yet to read the third..


message 6: by Giulia (new)

Giulia I like:
- Eve (I've yet to read the follow up books)
- The Declaration (which is pretty good with two follow up books as well)
- The Pledge (Kimberly Derting I didn't like it too much but the story is good and the setting is good too.)
- Of course, the Hunger Games


message 7: by Giulia (new)

Giulia The Declaration is about 15 year old Anna who lives in Grange Hall, a place for people who were not supposed to have children but had one anyways. The Longevity drug has allowed everyone to live longer and you have to 'opt-out' to have children; not take the longevity drug ever to have children. Anna is happy to become useful in society as she comes to the end of ehr stay in Grange Hall but mysterious Peter comes late in his life to Grange Hall and tells her her last name and information about her parents...ooooooo. Check it up!

Got it on the list! w00t! And yeah Hannah I'll drop it off when I get home (at Gramma's) =D


message 11: by Giulia (new)

Giulia Oh so you both know each other?


message 12: by Sierra, Queen of Dystopia (new)

Sierra Bookworm☺️♪ | 909 comments Mod
Oh yeah we've lived near each other forever =). She's a street away from me!


message 13: by Giulia (new)

Giulia That's so cool! My best friend is literally opposite the street but a highway separates us. -.- Can't really cross on my own. So I guess you guys go to the same school and everything?


message 14: by Sierra, Queen of Dystopia (new)

Sierra Bookworm☺️♪ | 909 comments Mod
Mmmhmm. And we're in pretty much the same classes, and her last name starts with the same letter as mine so we're usually close to each other in all those classes =). It works out pretty well. And that stinks that you can't see your friend without almost getting hit by cars (cuz that's what I'm picturing in my head) XD


message 15: by Hannah (new)

Hannah and shes gonna move soon once her house sells:(((

and we live in cauldasacs(how do u spell that?) so not really much of a street to cross:)


message 16: by Giulia (new)

Giulia Don't worry, that's pretty much it :D


message 17: by Sierra, Queen of Dystopia (new)

Sierra Bookworm☺️♪ | 909 comments Mod
Cul-de-sacs, dear friend, and yeah. But the house-selling thing isn't going very well right now, so we don't know what we're gonna do =(


message 18: by Giulia (new)

Giulia It's alright. I don't really live in the US or a place with those kinds of houses.

Do you live in Italy?


message 20: by Giulia (last edited Jul 30, 2012 12:02PM) (new)

Giulia No, Vietnam.


message 21: by Hannah (new)

Hannah That's so cool! What's it like?


message 22: by Giulia (new)

Giulia Well, pretty much hot everyday of the year, the roads have no rules, not much to do but we're getting there! I visited the US last summer (I assume that's where you guys live?) and it was totally cool!


message 23: by Sierra, Queen of Dystopia (new)

Oh awesome!! I would've said everything Hannah said, but she got here before me ;D.


message 24: by Giulia (new)

Giulia Hahas. So strange we managed to get to this topic huh?


message 25: by Sierra, Queen of Dystopia (new)

Sierra Bookworm☺️♪ | 909 comments Mod
Yep XD. It's happened again!


message 26: by Giulia (new)

Giulia So do you guys travel lots? Visit the world?


message 27: by Hannah (new)

Hannah what about winter? and yeah we live in the US.
haha good luck in the olympics:D


message 28: by Giulia (new)

Giulia -.- At least my other half (italy) is doing well! You guys are doing great too but I'm afraid China might take it all. As for winter, the lowest we get is about 27 degrees. Max. That gives us a reason to wear a cardigan for once!

I travel a lot, idk bout Hannah....
Where did you visit in the U.S.?


message 30: by Hannah (last edited Sep 11, 2012 01:41PM) (new)

Hannah I am a total freeze baby so I would LOVE having basically summer all year around!

Umm, i travel! Ive gone to Colorado,Iowa,Illinois(twice),Wyoming,Nebraska,Indiana,Missouri,Kansas,Florida,Georgia,Virginia,Washington DC, West Virginia,etc...

thank you very much;)


message 31: by Giulia (new)

Giulia I went to NY, Orlando, Washington DC and went on a cruise to the Bahamas! It was AMAZING but the flight was depressingly long; the longest I've been on so far. Had to backtrack a day going there and skipped a day going back! Had to transit in Seoul, South Korea for hours. Mainly just slept in the airport. Teehee.


message 32: by Hannah (new)

Hannah Ive been to Orlando, Washington DC and Proud has gone to the Bahamas- well The Dominican Republic. Shes been on a ton of plane rides and ive never been on a plane.

That sounds pretty cool:) New York is kind of like Chicago,Illinois but Chicago is cleaner.. Did I mention I love chicago?
My dream is to go to Europe- France, England, Whales:))


message 33: by Giulia (new)

Giulia France is really nice! Paris is awesome. Don't worry, plane rides aren't ALL THAT. I have a big fear of them which is pretty silly cause I have to fly quite a bit.


message 34: by Hannah (new)

Hannah WOAH WOAH WOAH WAIT! YOU HAVE GONE TO PARIS,FRANCE?!?!
and im afraid of heights, but i would want to fly on a plane anyways.


message 35: by Giulia (new)

Giulia Yeah, had to transit to get to italy so I took a few days there. It's pretty much like what the movies portray it and really amazing. My fav city! though not every window has a view of the Eiffel tower like the films! You should at least fly once! Some school trip or something?


message 36: by Hannah (new)

Hannah YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH I ENVY YOU!!!!!!!! my friends and I have like planned our WHOLE trip after college and UR SOOOO LUCKY!


message 37: by Giulia (new)

Giulia Oh thanks...it's awesome to go with friends as well! it's cooler if you raised the money yourself and manage to go with your friends. That's what I hope to do before uni as well!


message 38: by Hannah (new)

Hannah yeah we're saving up to go:))


message 39: by Giulia (new)

Giulia oh hey, you're back. I can stay on a little longer. So only Paris you're planning or an all Europe thing?


message 40: by Hannah (new)

Hannah well, our main thing is to go to paris and drive around seeing most of france. In the same trip we were gonna go to England too:)


message 41: by Giulia (new)

Giulia I haven't been to the UK yet but I want to go to University there -.- don't know how that's going to work considering the weather there is terrible as well.


message 42: by Hannah (new)

Hannah i basically just think europe all in all is amazing:)


message 43: by Giulia (new)

Giulia yup, it's reeeeaaaaallllll cool. All of it. Driving is the best cause they don't ven check passports when you cross the border. The Mediterranean lifestyle is awesome and you've got your little french farms or the exquisitely expensive Cannes and so on and so forth.


message 44: by Hannah (new)

Hannah yeah i planned on driving it seems like less of a hassle


message 45: by Giulia (new)

Giulia You learn at 16 there right?


message 46: by Hannah (new)

Hannah yeah you get your license at 16. what about you?


message 47: by Giulia (last edited Jul 30, 2012 12:20PM) (new)

Giulia 16 here for anything under 200cc but 18 for anything over. NO THANK YOU! I do not want to learn. Vietnam is crazy for their motorbikes, honestly!


message 48: by Hannah (new)

Hannah oh is a moterbike the same as a motorcycle or a scooter?


message 49: by Giulia (new)

Giulia yup! except we have the small ones like a Honda dream, nothing big like a ducati (though my dad would like one) or Harley-Davison.

Oh, look, I'm back and intruding on your convo! I've been to the Bahamas too, as well as a ton of other islands in the Carribean ;D. My great uncle has three motorcycles! My grandma rides them with him sometimes XD.
