[Kristen Simmons] continues the extraordinary dystopian story of Chase and Ember in [Breaking Point]. The concepts of what the US government has become in these books is nightmarish. The evolution of the characters who are coming of age in these books is thought provoking. It was hard for me to put the book down because I became so engaged with Ember and Chase’s struggle. I recommend this book for anyone who likes a well paced story with engaging characters. I will also recommend these books for my school library.

Everything has consequences. All actions are linked. That is the way [Shalini Boland] manages the novel [Outside]. This post-apocalyptic story takes place in England after a worldwide rash of terrorist attacks. The country has been divided into numerous walled cities of various stature and safety.

The twists and turns in this book will leave you wanting to find out more. I really enjoyed this story. I received it as a give away as part of the [Shattered World] books. I really recommend this book to anyone who likes dystopian novels.

What a creative story, magic and candy making! This book is a dystopian type set in modern day. There are the people called sixth sensors that have special gifts that the king has captured or destroyed. Aini works in her father's candy shop. Her father is taken and Aini sets out to save him. Myles, Thane, and Neve are Aini's friends and they go with her to help her find her Dad. This book is a page turner! Highly recommended! I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.

This book has been on my to-read list for some time both because it is a classic and because it is a favorite of my dads and older brothers. I absolutely loved this book. It was beautifully written and the tone was unique. I greatly enjoyed going on the complicated emotional journey of Montag. The world that Bradbury created was imaginative while also feeling like a possibility for a dystopian future. I loved this book and honestly want to read it again because I feel like each read through would give you more.

DNF @ 16%.

Four days in and I've only read 16%? That just shows how not into the story I am. If I was I'd have finished it by now.

I struggled from the start, I didn't gel with the style or the storyline and the changing of viewpoint from one chapter to the next just annoyed me.

It might just be that I wasn't in the mood for a dystopian story or I just might not like it at all. Either way I wont be coming back to it.

Movie Favorite Watch

"Terry Gilliam’s masterpiece proves he is the only true heir to Fellini (and Salvador Dalì as well). Brazil is over-the-top, terrifying, funny, and moving. A hilarious and violent dystopian tale of the future using elements of the past, it strangely seems more and more like our present. Terrorism, surveillance, cosmetic surgery, hacking, and authoritarian control: Gilliam’s prescience is astounding. Ian Holm turns in one of cinema’s great supporting roles as Mr. Kurtzman, Jonathan Pryce’s sniveling and cowardly boss. And it has one of the most crushing and haunting endings in movie history."
