Set the bar for YA dystopian
Does anything really NEED to be said that hasn't already been said about this series? We see many individual characters with both positive and negative traits. We see we see a relationship built and tested and questioned. We see "villains" who are also victims of a system. We see many negative aspects of our own world amplified to the point where it becomes blatantly obvious in the hopes that we may be able to change them.

Well done Collins.

Introduction of new heroes and villains and it expands on existing characters in novel ways (0 more)
Another great read
Love magic? Love fantasy? Try the Dresden Files.
This novel, the 4th in the series, has Harry Dresden facing new enemies, making allies in the strangest of ways, and generally making himself a pain in the ass to all manner of authority (mortal, magical and faerie).
Without giving too much away, this book introduces some wonderful new characters whom Harry will help, hinder and smack down in all manner of ways.
Worth owning to read and read again.
