I've finished: Scythe by Neal Shusterman

It was recommended as part of a Story Graph reading challenge under the prompt:

" 20. Dystopian Deconstruction (1 added)

Critiques the overused conventions of YA dystopias".

I found it to be a very conventional YA dystopia novel.

I see these prompts a a learning opportunity. If you've read Scythe and can enlighten me as to why it would be considered a diconstruction of YA dystopian conventions, I'd love to hear it. If you agree that it is not a diconstructi9on, can you recommend another novel for this prompt?

Mind you, in this reading challenge Anti YA is an adjacent prompt.

" 19. Anti-YA (2 added)

Challenges traditional YA tropes like the chosen one or insta-love."

I think this discussion will contain spoilers. So it will be continued in the next message with a content warning.

I would think classics would be the goal if your looking to evolve as a read, but if you're reading just for fun and you like YA that's fine too 🤔 Not everything has to be a competition 😇

I was happy to receive an advanced reading copy of 'Leeta Simtar: A Life on Two Planets'. A coming of age Sci-Fi novel by Annie Fox about self-discovery, self-acceptance, and the important role of found family and people who take you, understand you, and accept you as you are.

The book is coming out coming March 11, 2025.
