I can't wait to read it. She's a doll! I (hangs head in shame) haven't read The Giver yet.<br /><br />The dystopian book that sticks out the most in my mind is The Handmaid's Tale. It wasn't my favorite story, but the writing was fantastic.Sharon K.

But I've been wanting to reread it, now that all these dystopian books are so popular, and both me and my taste are a little more mature.

I haven't read it yet either, and part of it was I was also creeped out by the guy on the cover! But yes, I keep hearing how good it is and I'm all into dystopians right now. So yeah, maybe it's time to read it. :)<br /><br />There are so many great dystopians to choose from! Right now, I'd have to say The Hunger Games, but I do love me some classics like Fahrenheit 451 and 1984, except 1984 is such a downer!Krispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09492607213249874138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9011133488035315179.post-62223771884293913472011-01-28T10:24:17.669-08:002011-01-28T10:24:17.669-08:00I just finished On Writing by Stephen King and am ...I just finished On Writing by Stephen King and am ready for my next read!<br />My fave dystopian is Hunger Games by far.<br />Just this week a writer friend couldn't believe I hadn't read The Giver yet!?<br />I know!
