DYSTOPIA!

The success of the Hunger Games movie,the switch to genre-based fiction in the library, and our past One Book, One School choices has led to an increase interest in dystopian novels.

 Hoping to capitalize on student interest, some of the 8th grade language arts classes are doing a unit that includes reading some scifi/dystopia/post-apocalyptic literature.


 If you are looking for something to read, here are some of my favorite titles in those genres (linked to goodreads):
Enclave
Feed
Candor
Ender's Game
Matched
The Way We Fall
Little Brother
The Boy at the End of the World
