In the last episode of PPFt, Amy and Richard spoke about an episode of Pop Culture Happy Hour Small Batch where Stephen Thompson and Petra Mayer chatted about fan fiction. Petra writes about genre fiction and is the self-described ‘staff geek’ at NPR.
Amy, always the opinionated librarian, wanted to share some books she loves from her gene of choice; YA dystopian fiction. And seeing as Richard is one of those comic book geeks he had a suggestion or two to share as well.
So if you’re looking for a couple of great books to add to your 2015 ‘must read’ list, you could do worse than to add these.
Amy’s picks
- Uglies trilogy by Scott Westerfeld
- Chaos Walking series by Patrick Ness
- Little Brother by Cory Doctorow
Richard’s picks
And the fan fiction recommended by Petra Mayer on PCHH Small Batch is Just Impediment by Doyle on Teaspoon
Enjoy!
