So as you know, I've been going to a gazillion events over the last few months. And there have been a LOT of free books to take home. I tried to be good -- really I did! But I ended up with just TOO MANY BOOKS and my bookcases are overflowing.
SO... I've decided to start doing some giveaways leading up to the launch of SCORCHED! Some of the books will be autographed by the authors themselves. Some will be advanced copies of books not yet in store. ALL will be awesome.
I figured it was best to start out with a bang! So giveaway #1 is going to be a SIGNED paperback copy of DIVERGENT by the lovely Veronica Roth. I was fortunate to briefly meet Veronica at the RT Convention this year and she was extremely lovely. I can't wait for the movie!
Obviously you'd have to be living under a rock to not know Divergent, but just in case--here's a cover/description for you. And the Rafflecopter giveaway is below! Enter early and often and may the odds be EVER IN YOUR FAVOR!! (OK wrong book, but I couldn't resist!)
In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is—she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.
During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles to determine who her friends really are—and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes infuriating boy fits into the life she's chosen. But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she discovers a growing conflict that threatens to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her.

My favorite dystopian book is The Hunger Games but my favorite series would be the Gone books by Michael Grant.
Well to be honest I have not read the Divergent series yet so I will have to say The Hunger Games by far! Though i love most dystopians! I know when I read Divergent I am going to go gaga over it like the rest of the world, LOL. I actually have an ecopy of Divergent but who could pass up a SIGNED print copy of a great book? Not me!
Thanks so much for an awesome awesome giveaway!

Black City by Elizabeth Richards and Shatter Me
So far my favorite is Black City and Masque of the Red Death. I haven't had a chance to read DIVERGENT yet, but I've been wanting to read it since it came out!! There are so many GOOD Dystopian books out now that it really is hard to choose a favorite. So I put my top favorites for now. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this AWESOME giveaway!!!
My favorite dystopian novel is The Hollows series by Kim Harrison
don't have a fav yet
My favourite Dystopian was The Gone series by Michael Grant but I absolutely love Dystopian books so I have many on my list. That one comes to mind quickest :)
I have lots that I want to read, but haven't yet read. One I have read and loved was The Giver by Lois Lowry because I read it with my son. We both loved it and many discussions on it :)
I need to read the rest of them with him, but his friends take priority at summer break :)
Cassandra
Erm...would CInder and Scarlet count as a dystopian?
Although I absolutely LOVED DIVERGENT, and just read THE HUNGER GAMES and loved it too, my favorite dystopian novel is (and probably hallways will be) BRAVE NEW WORLD. Perhaps it's because it's one of the first dystopian I ever read, but so far, nothing has surpassed it for me. Thanks for this amazing giveaway!! (Although, if I'm 100% honest - and this is NOT blowing smoke - I'd actually rather have an autographed copy of SCORCHED!!! I soooooo cannot wait to read it!!)
That's a tough one...Where do I begin?The Hunger Games,Shatter Me,Divergent,Otherborn,Matched,Under The Never Sky,The Selection,Legend,Cinder and many many more.... :)
My favourite dystopian novel is definitely Insurgent! I loved Divergent, but Insurgent blew me away even more.
Thanks for such a fantastic giveaway!
Stitch by samantha durante
The Hunger Games was my favorite dystopian series
Gah! I love the Divergent series. :D
My favorite dystopian I think is Blood Red Road. It was so strange and original. I haven't read the other in the series yet but I really enjoyed Blood Red Road.
Oh, but now I think about it, I believe The Selection series is considered dystopian.
So I'll change my answer to The Selection. I completely love that series.
I absolutely and completely love Divergent<3 Not only is Tris a awesome and unique narrator but Four is just..wow:P<3
I also love Shadow and Bone:)
Don't currently have a fav, but there are many I want to try out on my Goodreads!
The Hunger Games is my favorite dystopian series!
Also thanks for the amazing giveaway!!
Although i havent read many dystopian books yet my favorite so far would have to be the Uglies series.
Under the Never Sky :)
I really loved David Estes' Fire Country!
The Selection or delirium
no fav. yet :)
Thank you sooo much for the autographed copy of divergent!! :D
I really liked Crewel by Gennifer Albin and The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.

The Hunger Games and I'm currently reading Divergent and really enjoying it! Thanks for the great giveaway.

Divergent is not only my favourite Dystopian, but one of my favourite books of all times. I have fond memories of watching the sun come up after a night of reading it, unable to put it down.
I love the Hungrr Games :) I just finished reading this book yesterday and it was amazingly good.

The Hunger Games is my favorite but Divergent is up high on the list! Thanks!

Favorite would be The Hunger Games and Divergent comes close at second! I have read those books without breaks. I can't remember how many hours I have devoted to them.
my favorite distopian novel actually is Divergent.
My favorite dystopian novel would be: divergent because it's just an amazing book and if u haven't read it I suggest that u do!!!!
Divergent of course! Along with Legend, Delirium, Under the Neversky, Blood of Eden series, The Selection, Matched, Shatter Me, The Blood Red Road, and so much more!
