Little Brother

                                       Little Brother

       In English, we're in our Dystopian unit. We got a free book....and I chose Little Brother by Cory Doctorow. I chose this book because out of the others, there was more action and crime. I really wanted to read Feed, but it got voted out! :( I didn't want to read a "romance" book selected by a school, it couldn't be that romance-y. Since I like reading crime novels, I thought this would be a good choice. I've only read a chapter or two, but so far it's gotten my attention pretty well. I like the fact that it's based in high school, so it relates well to me. Also, w1n5t0n is very tech-y.... Relating to just about every 10+ kid! I mean, who in this day in age doesn't have a computer? Everyone I know does.

       So far, my book doesn't have too many Dystopia characteristics. It is a fictional society, but it seems real. There'e really not too much they do that we can't. It isn't really set in the future from my perspective- it's set in 2015....only two years from now. I haven't picked up on anything else yet, either.
