letting go of the knife

Sunday, November 15, 2009 |

It’s time to announce the winner of The Knife of Never Letting Go. Patrick Ness’ novel is a dystopian tale that takes readers to the edge with gripping suspense and mystery, and forces devotion to its characters through heart-breaking revelations and decisions. Without further ado, the winner is:

Dominique

from Coffee Stained Pages

Who answered the question, “What’s one dystopian novel you’ve read (or would like to read)?” with:

“I think my favourite dystopian novel is The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. I've also read The Giver by Lois Lowry, Nineteen Eighty Four by George Orwell, Brave New World by Aldous Huxley and Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro.

I want to read The Knife of Never Letting Go after reading your review, it sounds great!” Congrats, Dominique!

Other dystopian (or post-apocalyptic, or whatever-you-want-to-label-them-but-damn-they’re-scary!) novels mentioned: Swan Song by Robert McCammon, The Hunger Games and Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins, In A Perfect World by Laura Kasischke, The Road by Cormac McCarthy, Unwind by Neal Shusterman, Alas Babylon by Pat Frank, The Running Man by Stephen King, Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, Perdido Street Station by China Mieville, The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan, Uglies by Scott Westerfeld, How I Live Now by Meg Rosoff, Oryx and Crake and The Year of the Flood by Margaret Atwood, The Maze Runner by James Dashner, and The Lord of the Flies and Animal Farm by Orwell.

Happy reading, everyone!
