Kate, yes, that too.
I really much preferred Scott Westerfeld's dystopian future in the Uglies series, which slowly unfold to show the world is, in fact, a much bigger place than the lead character understands. And he writes kickass action sequences, too.
That's also on my List. It's a trilogy, but then there's some book called
Extras
? Should I read that too?
Extras
is...okay. I'm glad I read it for completion's sake, but I didn't like it as much as the first 3.
I also really like Westerfeld's Midnighters trilogy, although it's not dystopia like Uglies or Hunger Games.
I thought the (third book spoilers)
pods were designed so they could be activated remotely but also I didn't think the Capitol was too worried that a few citizens might get blown up by mistake
.

Me, neither. The first three were the best of that sequence.
I'm a completist, so I'll probably read it. Maybe I'll do them in January.
HOLY CRAP. ZOMG. WHAT THE FUCK. JESUS CHRIST, SHIT, STOP GETTING SO REAL.
AMY FINISH THE BOOK NOW.
HOLY CRAP. ZOMG. WHAT THE FUCK. JESUS CHRIST, SHIT, STOP GETTING SO REAL.
It was one hell of an ending.
