Dystopian Books #AtoZChallenge

Sorry I did not get this post up yesterday. The past couple of days have been CRAZY for my family and I. On Thursday my mom woke me up and said she needed to go to the ER, and so my focus from that point forward was on her. Yesterday she had surgery, so I went straight from work to the hospital, and did not get home until kind of late after we all got her home and settled. She is doing much better now, though!

D is for Dystopia - I wanted to focus on the dystopian fad that has popped up somewhat recently and continues to gain popularity. I enjoy reading them very much, and based on blogs/instagram/twitter, I know that I am not the only one!

What are some things that make a story dystopian? 
-I think the first and main thing is that their is some kind of government trying to take control, and in turn making life pretty miserable for those that are not involved with it. There is some force working against the people, and they have to decide if they are going to continue to live with it, or to try to over throw it. I do believe that this is part of why we enjoy them so much. We want to see the good guys win, at least I know that I do.

So, what do you think make dystopian novels so enjoyable? What are some of your favorite dystopian books?
