Special Dystopia by Alli Ferguson, Selah Raymer
5.0
Ferguson does a great job of pulling you in right from the beginning. Special Dystopia is just that. It is a unique dystopian full of sharp detail and relatable characters. I appreciated that it was multiple POV as they can be hard to come by in books. I always love getting a look into someone else's head. The world building was absolutely fantastic! Not too much, not too little. I typically don't go for dystopians, but the fact that this kept me reading, says a lot.
Sam was my favorite character. She had a good bit of spunk to her and I often found myself smirking at her snarky comments.The relationship between the girls, sisters and friends both, was lovely. I don't often read of such genuine relationships between women and so it was a refreshing and welcomed change.
I also really liked Max. He was a sweetheart. I thought he brought a nice balance to the group (as did the rest of the cast as we were introduced to them).
There were a couple of good twists. I enjoyed watching the Specials' powers develop and how each was unique to them.
I believe this book is suitable for anyone that enjoys fast-paced and engaging stories. It gave me a bit of a feel like Wool or Divergent. I couldn't put it down. This is the first in a series, so if you're looking for something new and exciting, Special Dystopia is for you!
