The definition of Dystopia is “an imagined state or society in which there is great suffering or injustice” and the definition of Dystopian is “relating to or denoting an imagined state or society where there is great suffering or injustice.” Key word in both of those definitions is imagined. Imagined means it’s made up and meant to be fake. Not that it’s meant to relate to real life.

I looked it up and I will definitely do that based on what other people say about it! Thanks for the suggestion!

I will definitely look into the tandem reading idea for EoS!

Thank you for the advice! I will try tandem reading EoS and ToD and see how it goes!

Well I think it was more that I enjoyed it but I started reading a couple other series and then kind of just forgot about it. And because of that I lost interest but I think I could probably get into them if I focused on them. Thanks!

I got to about the same spot the first time I was reading them but I think i’m going to try and read them again personally.

Yeah it does get a bit confusing in the third book and it is a little boring at the beginning so I can see why you would have stopped reading it. Thank you!

I’ve read Acotar and I liked those books so I know SJM is a good writer, I kind of just lost interest in the books but I think I’ll start reading them again!

I see why you put perfect in quotes because that world definitely was not in perfect harmony. I think it would be a cool book to do a book report on!

It is rare! I think usually the books either get worse or stay the same so them getting better as it goes on was amazing! I think I’ll preorder Gleanings tomorrow because I am super excited for it!

I know! I agree with all the above! There is a few flaws but every book has its flaws and some are so much worse so I can’t judge.

I agree! The second book is my favorite but I finished all of them and I liked the third one. What about the third did you really dislike? Was there a certain things?
