Cristina (mrsbudryzer) | 371 comments In honor of our author of the month...Samantha Durante, author of Stitch Stitch (Stitch Trilogy, #1) by Samantha Durante
this month's challenge is to read Dystopian books!!

Minimum of 5 books to be in the running for the prize, and each book must have a minimum of 100 pages.
One entry for every 5 books you read. So, if you read 10, you'll be entered twice.

This challenge will run from 3/1 through 3/31.

The prize will be one of my very own handmade ribbon bookmarks!!! :)

Gabby | 906 comments Dystopian books are in a futuristic world like The Hunger Games, Divergent, The Hunt, Delirium, The Immortal Rules etc... probably not an excellent way to explain it, lol :)

Cristina (mrsbudryzer) | 371 comments Pretty good Gabby :)
They are generally sci-fi, futuristic, post-apocolyptic stories that can essentially be ANYTHING since these worlds really do not exist. They are actually pretty wonderful and if you haven't tried one, now is your chance!


Here are some lists:
