Red Rising by Pierce Brown
5.0

I have been reading so much dystopian fiction hoping for something even a little bit close to the same caliber of societal commentary and deep world building of the Hunger Games…and oh, did this deliver!

I will say I almost stopped reading at around 10-15% because it’s a slow start, but I’m very grateful I kept going because the story really picks up after there and it’s gripping!

Every time I thought I knew what was going to happen in this book I was proven wrong in the best way possible.

A must read for any dystopian fans.
