  • For dystopian readers

    I have read many dystopian series of books and have enjoyed all of them. This series is another one that I like so far. I am half-way through book 1 and am looking forward to how this progresses. This is the first time I've read anything by this author, and I am planning to look for other books by her. I know that most of the dystopian books that I have read are teens, but I am 64 and enjoy them immensely.
