There's this kid in my class who pretends to read that book every lesson. What I mean by that is he looks at the book and plays on his phone.
I've never read it, but it does sound quite good.

Ahahahaha. Yeah, one of the kids in my class always does that; he pretends that he's reading, but behind the book, he has his iPhone.
But yeah, it does sound like a pretty good book. I've been getting into dystopian fiction lately, so it sounds interesting. Might read it soon.

But it is extraordinarily interesting.
Remarkably clear language and very easy-to-read.

The only dystopian fiction anyone reads in my school anymore is The Hunger Games Trilogy.
I always thought that dystopian fiction should be something that could happen and actually say something about society/government, though.

I read some and found out why
Yeah, it's got a really strong message but at a cost: some content that isn't appropriate for children.
