Loving those Dystopian / Sci-Fi books?? Then you should totally read these!

This past week was Spring Break.
 For me, that means one thing.
My favorite mini reader/blogger (TheReaderLeader) a.k.a my boss's daughter gets to spend the whole week with me at work.
Here's a little video she helped me throw together. 

In honor of the Hunger Games Movie coming out this week.
We thought we'd share a few of our favorite recent Dystopian books and a few that we're dieing to read!
If you ask me..
That's Tons of AWESOME to add to your TBR!
Hope everyone had a great Spring Break!

  1. I have Shatter Me and Legend on my TBR pile. I can't wait to read them!
    I've read Under the Never Sky and Divergent and I thought they're both good but not amazing. :)

  5. I can't see the video right now, but looking at that list.. there are still quite a few I need to read. That's a great list though! Have you read Dark Inside by Jeyn Roberts? AMAZING! It's one of my favorites now.

  6. A long, long sleep became one of my favorite books, so you definitely need to read that one! You can find my review on my blog, if you like ^^

  7. Awesome list. There is a new one coming out in a couple months, This Is Not A Test by Courtney Summers that looks fantastic. And then The Hunt by Andrew Fukuda I can't wait to read either. I'm definitely adding some of these to my list!

    Thanks!

  10. Dear Amanda,
    Are all the above books dystopian sci-fi? I'm beginning my Ph.D. on it, so I need my books to be both sci-fi and dystopian... Please let me know, I'll be thankful for the help... It'd also help a lot if you could suggest a few names, leaving out the most famous like Neuromancer or The Handmaid's Tale or Fahrenheit 451... Thank you...
