love dystopian! Can't wait for Julia's new book.
thanks for the other titles!
Dystopian is my favourite Genre and you've brought loads more titles to my attention. I'm certainly not going to run out of reading material soon. Thanks for the great giveaways too.
Your review are always a great way to read through and prioritize the current HUGE spate of dysoptians.
Thanks!
Enclave made me so claustrophobic while reading it. I thought the way their names were picked was interesting.
Already on week 3, can't believe it's almost over. :( Thanks for all the great previews and reviews.
Thanks for the plug! :)
The sequel to XVI? Holy moly. That is the motherload of giveaways for me!
