I think mostly because dystopian romance is something that seems far closer to being a new thing, as opposed to the vampire stuff. It’s probably not entirely logical – dystopias have been around for ages, too – but then again neither is my brain. :)

Though I also enjoyed The Hunger Games very much.

I have never read any of his books. I really need to before we go. (But, January, three months, long time, etc.)

Yep, sooo many black spines in the teen section. Although there are new white Twilight editions just in time for Christmas, and they are stunning, damn them. And even though it falls under the ‘death’ category, I love the new Hunger Games for being bright orange.
