Em finally looks up, blushing. "Sorry, sorry. I know--I'm becoming 'that girl'... I'll stop. It's just that I really--"-Pg. 64 of an ARC of "Freshman Year and Other Unnatural Disasters" by Meredith Zeitlin
"Miss James!" we chant in unison.
Em flushes an even brighter red than before.
I'm a little less than halfway now and I must say, this book is very cute. I'm definitely enjoy it!
What's your teaser?
Top Ten Tuesday is a 10's list meme hosted by The Broke and The Bookish. There is a different question every week and all you have to do is answer their question with your top ten results!
Top Ten YA Dystopian Novels1) The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins- This is probably on top of almost everyone's dystopian list and for good reason. This series blew my mind and left my head spinning. Perfect to whet anyone's whistle into the world of dystopian.
2) Divergent by Veronica Roth- Roth builds a very unique world with complex characters that you can't help falling in love with. There is something for everyone in this dystopian.
3) Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi- Beautiful, distinct writing and an X-Man concept combine to bring this amazing dystopian to life. With heart pounding moments of suspense and even hotter moments of romance, this is one awesome book!
4) Matched by Ally Condie- For me, this is a quieter dystopian. There isn't all out war but it feels like the world is just on the cusp of it. Plus, I loved the powerful imagery associated with each character!
6) Wither by Lauren DeStefano- This book addresses the question-- what would you do if you only lived till 21 or 25? The old generation is dying out thanks to a disease. The new generation are ticking times bombs. And their time is up at 21. The characters risk everything for a chance to live their short life their way.
7) The Way We Fall by Megan Crewe- This dystopian reads just like a zombie flick without the zombies. You catch a cold that turns you into a loving human being, then turns you mad and two days later, you are dead. Watching these characters try to survive as the virus spreads is terrifying and exciting.
I'm sure I've read a few more to add to the list but these are the titles that jumped out at me from my shelves. What made your Top Ten this week?
