Elements series by Tracy Korn.
Ready Player One
@Justine loved that book
I don’t read or like Dystopian books ..however I love the movies..just watched Ready Player One this afternoon and loved the visuals! Maybe I need to give the books a try. Sometimes too many characters..layers..times..boogle my mind. I usually prefer 1 straight story and no more than 2 time zones..eras..

Gender Games by Bella Forrest and The Enhanced by TC Edge
I am sure the Divergent series has already been mentioned, but it’s good. The Handmaid’s Tale. Red Clocks by Leni Zumas is defintely a dystopian novel but not like the others I’ve listed. It’s a really good book though.
Loved Red Clocks. So possible in these times it’s scary.
@Denise I kept thinking of it as Mike Pence’s America.
@Sarai I’ve been thinking the same thing.
The testing
Wool trilogy
Great series!
Fahrenheit 451 and Slaughterhouse 5.
The children of men
Book bored me to tears, couldn’t finish
Both great
Vox. I didn’t care for it but it gets good reviews
Vox was a great idea but it was poorly executed.
@Neva I agree.
Unwind series, Elements series was okay.

The Road, Cormac McCarthy
Dystopian!!! My favorite genre. There’s 1984, We, this perfect day, kallocain, One, brave new world.
I’m a huge dystopian fan too, but I’ve never heard of This Perfect Day or Kallocain
Station Eleven, Monument 14, The Knife of Never Letting Go and The Uglies series are all good.
Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood and Handmaids Tale
The power by Naomi alderman
Divergent series really good
