    1. Love first person;
    Love present tense
    2. Love all kinds of prose
    3. Don't mind simple dialogue
    4. Love social commentary
    5. Fine with soft or hard scifi
    6. Aliens or no 🤷‍♀️
    7. Give me gladiators!
    8. YA 🤷‍♀️
    9. Huge fan of Marc Tufo 😉
    10. I don't like red but I'll survive 😉🤪❤

    Really excellent books! That first one did put me in mind of Hunger Games, but far, *far* better.

      I know a lot of folks are a little iffy on book one of RR but I still had a great time!
      Action, interesting plot, characters you love and despise, and more! 🤣

    I've read the first one so far and really enjoyed it. It's a completely different feel than Suneater and I agree with Mike that they aren't really comparable in a lot of ways.
    It dives into the muck of things, so if you don't like getting down and dirty with descriptions, this book may not be for you.

      Totally agree! Sun Eater and Red Rising might be both sci-fi and have some Roman influences but... anything more than that? IDK 😂😂

    I read the first 3 books, and it just wasn't for me. I will persevere and read Iron Gold sometime before the end of the year though.

    1st person, present tense is a tough sell

    Just a minority view here. There are some people, indeed hopefully a great many people, to whom the word/letter I is the most sacred word in human language. There, I said it.
