Yea, I read The Giver when I was in middle school and it is still one of my favorite books!

So I'm only 23% into Wink Poppy Midnight and so far I think that Poppy is a freaking bitch! Excuse my language. I know that the synopsis says that no one is quite what you think and that everything can change on a dime. But I REALLY hope that Wink doesn't become the villain. There are enough redheaded villains out there!

I know, I'm a bit biased because of my red hair. But I'd really like a story where the red headed girl isn't a villain. (Not talking about the Weasley's.. Aside from them)

How are you guys liking Wink Poppy Midnight so far?!

HAHA, I am the same way!! I am horrible at reading standalones, so I prefer reading series. But I am SO bad at completing the series!

The woes of being bookish!

The first dystopian I ever read was The Giver as well! I haven't read the rest of the quartet, but I want to!

I've never read The Hunger Games. And I don't really know if I ever will... Don't hate me. :)

I'm in!

I totally understand! I am the SAME way!

I DNF'd after 15%, I just couldn't get into it... June kind of sucked for me with the book club picks. So I'm hoping July's picks will captivate me so much more!
