Oh! My fave Dystopian so far is The Hunger Games. Because it's just bad ass lol

Hey guys!!! The link for chapter one is not working! Grrr. I'm going to post it tomorrow! Sorry!
-
Cannot wait till next week...FAMISHED sounds so amazing (and that cover ROCKS!) And I'm w/Trisha--of course I've done all of the above. =)
My favorite Dystopian HAS to be The Hunger Games as well...that series is awesomely good!
Thanks for the giveaway...and bummer about the Ch. 1 link =(

I love the Hunger Games so far because that is something that I can relate to when our society acts the way it does sometimes.
I am really looking forward to reading FAMISHED. Looks amazing!

I'm so excited for you. I added Famished to my Goodreads list the moment you announced it. And of course I'm following your blog and twitter. I have to admit I haven't read any dystopian yet. Famished will be my first!

Hi, there! Famished sounds great! I added it to my to-read list on Goodreads, am following you on GFC (Darlene), and on Twitter (@DarleneBookNook).
My email address is darlenesbooknook at gmail dot com.
I have not read any dystopian novels lately. Probably the last one was a classic, Fahrenheit 451. I think that book was probably pretty original for its time. I haven't yet read the more popular dystopian novels, like The Hunger Games...although that is definitely on my TBR list!
Thanks for the giveaway!

Your book sounds awesome...I loved the Hunger games..looks like everyone else did too.
Thanks!!
