I have read Red Rising and enjoyed it as well. Have you read the other books in the series?

I think that is the case with most books in the genre and why there is such a big draw to it. We want perfect but it is only perfect for some which means others will rebel against it causing disharmony in a utopian society thus making it a dystopian society.
