Read my review of Because It Is My Blood

Goodreads summary:
Since her release from Liberty Children's Facility, Anya Balanchine is determined to follow the straight and narrow. Unfortunately, her criminal record is making it hard for her to do that. No high school wants her with a gun possession charge on her rap sheet. Plus, all the people in her life have moved on: Natty has skipped two grades at Holy Trinity, Scarlet and Gable seem closer than ever, and even Win is in a new relationship.But when old friends return demanding that certain debts be paid, Anya is thrown right back into the criminal world that she had been determined to escape. It’s a journey that will take her across the ocean and straight into the heart of the birthplace of chocolate where her resolve--and her heart--will be tested as never before.

  8. About a year ago! I got all of these dystopians at once. They were All of these Things I Have Done, Starters, Battle Royale and Blood Red Road!

  9. It was probably when I actually enjoyed reading a required school book, 1984 and Brave New World. But my first "For Fun" dystopian was Matched series and the Hunger Games series. Picking those up back in 2010 definitely changed my reading habits, for the better!

  13. I think the first dystopian book I read was Matched in 2010, but there are several that I read before that may either be dystopian or post-apocalyptic. SOmetimes it's hard to tell the difference between the two.

  21. After I read Divergent and then Insurgent, then was mad I had to wait more than a year and a half for book 3, lol I had not read Hunget Games, did see the movie, am thinking the book has to be better. (did not like the actor choice for Peeta at all)
    Anyway, I also got even more into dystopian when I read Darkness Falls and Darkness Breaks by Jessica Sorensen, as it messhed dystopian with paranormal, which is even better.
    thanks

  22. The Hunger Games trilogy renewed my interest in dystopian novels.

  23. It started after I read Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. I loved the book so much and the series. It really just got me into dystopian because of how crazy things can happen in those societies.

  24. I started to enjoy it after reading The Hunger Games series, but I truly became a fan after reading the Unwind series by Neal Shusterman.

  25. Actually, I am pretty new to this genre. THe only thing I have read that I know for sure is Dystopian is the Hunger Games trilogy.
