Many of my students are reluctant readers, so it is necessary they have access to high interest books to get them hooked on reading. My students love dystopian fiction! Since they are reluctant readers, I have found that dystopian fiction tends to peek their interest since it is such a popular genre right now. The students are also familiar with this genre from movies and video games, so when they read a book with similar qualities, they are usually very interested. I also like to use literature circles so students can choose the book they want. Plus, with literature circles, the students can pair up with other students to help each other through difficult parts. My goal is create lifelong readers, and I have found that dystopian fiction novels help me achieve that goal.
