"They give monies and handouts to make generations dependent on the seventh day of each new Earth month. They create goods to grant us a semblance of liberty. If violence is the Gold sport, then manipulation is their art form." #book #reading #libray #resist #redrising #booksky #read
Our child suggested this book. It's fiction, but for some people it would be current events: "Golds structure everything to make their lives easier. They have shows produced to entertain and placate the masses. > #booksky #reading #redrising #piercebrown www.piercebrown.com/redrisingsaga

Red Rising is a dystopian science fiction series by American author Pierce Brown. The first book and eponym of a series is set on a future planet Mars and follows lowborn miner Darrow as he infiltrates the ranks of the elite Golds.

Finished #RedRising today.  I'm still not sure how I feel about it, the it definitely felt like a slow burn but the ending definitely landed and had some nice highs in the finale.

I think in the end it just felt a bit too close to Hunger Games for me, though it does appear to be leaving that phase moving forward.  I'm still waiting on the next #DungeonCrawlerCarl installment so might dive into the next book in the meantime to see where it all goes.

Recently finished #RedRising #PierceBrown Three out of four stars. Might recommend. Will not read again (it wasn't awful; just not my jam). "The first thing you should know about me is I am my father's son." In progress: #TheMysteriousAffairAtStyles #AgathaChristie
