But, the reviews are really split on GR. It seems like a lot of the people who really hated this book thought that the handling of mental illness was awful and/or offensive. What are your thoughts on that? <br /><br />Have you read 1984 by George Orwell? I think it's interesting to compare adult dystopians to YA dystopians. The whole worldview is different- I think what stands out is that in YA, there's usually a belief that one person can make a difference.365_books_a_yearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01921897822848823960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5551829329917541477.post-74567564674456675212012-05-20T01:36:12.175+02:002012-05-20T01:36:12.175+02:00Great Review!
