Top Ten Tuesday is hosted over at the other blog I write for, The Broke and the Bookish.
I missed this topic a while back because I took too long to think. Haha. So, now I can finally post! Yay for TTT rewind!
Panem in The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
I’m sorry, but I would be a nervous wreck for my entire life. I worry about everything. EVERYTHING. I worry about millions of things that don’t even happen. And if I didn’t have to fight, I would worry about having children, because I would not want them to be chosen. I would never stop worrying. That’s not a good way to live.
Internment in Perfect Ruin by Lauren DeStefano
A chunk of rock in the middle of the sky is not my kind of place. Plus, that government is insane. I would also really hate seeing the surface of the Earth and never being allowed to go visit.
Black City in Black City by Elizabeth Richards
This book upset me because it was very dark and the people were very violent. The city is in ruins, ash rains from the skies, and nothing is being re-built. Rubble is everywhere, and that’s where these people live. They can do nothing. The Darklings scare me to death, plus they are mad. Somebody on Goodreads compared this place to the Holocaust in Germany with vampires thrown in. Yes. Totally. *shudder* Don’t make me go.
The shores of Lake Superior in Lies Beneath by Anne Greenwood Brown
Killer mermaids. I would never leave my house. Well, I guess I could. I would never go near the water.
Under the rule of The Society in Matched by Ally Condie
I’m sorry, but I’m going to pick my own husband, ok?
The future of the USA in Plus One by Elizabeth Fama
I’m reading this one right now, and all humans are divided by day dwellers and night dwellers. The day dwellers live like us, but the night dwellers sleep all day and are up all night. And they are treated soooo badly! I’m a night owl! I love going out at night. And to not be allowed to? But on the other hand, to not be allowed to go out in the sun? EVER? I’d hate this.
The love-is-a-disease world in Delirium by Lauren Oliver
Ok, you can’t tell me I’m not allowed to love a person. Sorry, but no.
The world where books get burned in Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury
You burn my books, I burn you.
The world ravaged by natural disasters in Monument 14 by Emmy Laybourne
If you go outside, something terrible happens to you. Like you turn into a monster. All because of the toxic air. Ahhh! No thanks!
The world killed off by robots in Partials by Dan Wells
The human race is pretty much gone. Killed off by a weaponized virus by genetically engineered human-like beings. You live if you’re immune to it. And if you’re immune to it, they hunt you down.
So, what do you think of these worlds? Would you want to live there?
And which topic did you go back and do again? Link me up!
