The book Unwanteds should be classified a dystopic novel. In my book, if you showed any signs of being creative, on the day of the Purge, you are eliminated if your name is called under the Unwanteds. I don't think that would exist in a normal society like ours. There is also a High Priest who in this case, is the dictator. She is so royal, only the BEST of the Best can actually meet up with her. The land of Quill is NOTHING but dystopia and Arteme is nothing but utopia. This book would be ranked #1 for dystopic books on my list!

The book Unwanteds should be classified as a distopic novel because if you're artistic you would be murdered just because you're not super smart. Also Quill has old, broken down things that need to be repaired but there too selfish to get new things. They think they're PERFECT BECAUSE THEY'RE SMART! There is nothing interesting in Quill and all you do is learn at school or do your job. This is why I think the book Unwanteds is a distopic novel.

The book Unwanteds should be classified as a dystopic novel because in the book if you are caught doing anything creative you die at age 13. That is because Quill wants to have a perfect society and they beleive if you are creative you are not perfect and you die. The wanteds are the perfects and do not die instead they stay in Quill and go to school. that is why I thiny the book Unwanteds is dystopic.

The book Unwanteds should be classified as dystopic novel because the kill you if your creative. The land of quill wants to have noncreative smart people in their land. On the day of the purge they will set you into groups of wanted, nessisary, and unwanted I think its unfair. Thats why i think this is adystopic novel.
