Recommendations for dystopian Big Brother is watching type novels?
Well my all time favorite is of course 1984.
The classic: 1984
And there’s The Long Walk, it’s sort of of a dystopian, in a way. It’s a shorter novella though, by Stephen King
Following
Feed by M T Anderson, the Wool series by Hugh Howey
Brave New Word, Divergent Trilogy, The Giver, The Maze Runner.
We (1921) by Yevgeny Zamyatin is the novel that inspired Orwell’s 1984
I read one recently called Broadcast by Liam Brown. More like Black Mirror but still decent.
The Handmaids Tale too feels scarily possible.
The author said it is based on stuff that has happened in the world.
I just finished a book called Hit by Delilah S. Dawson. Not exactly a big brother type novel but definitely in that sort of vein.
1984
The Running Man
Brave New World
Hunger Games Series
Maze Runner Series
Divergent Series
Fahrenheit 451
I think those are the only ones I have read so far and I love them all ❤️?
Ally Condie – Matched series
@Nikki I actually found that one when I looked up dystopia in Goodreads. It sounds good!
I really liked it
Blind faith – Ben Elton.
@Laura I love Ben Elton. Highly underrated
The Girl Who Dared to Think, by Bella Forrest. I’ve only read the first one but I think there are 7. The first was really good I just haven’t continued the series yet.
Also, The Rule of One by Ashley and Leslie Saunders was good. The second one either hasn’t released yet, or just recently came out I’m not sure. Been too busy catching up on my TBR to go back to it ?♀️
The Circle
following
1984 by George Orwell, Maze Runner trilogy, Divergent trilogy,
‘The Testing.’ ‘The Program.’
Never let me go, by Kazuo Ishiguro
1Q84 By Haruki Murakami
How to use camera on cell phones.
The one you’ve yet to write.
Madaddam series by Margaret Atwood
Alexa? Sorry, couldn’t help myself. I agree with 1984, Maze Runner, and Divergent. Also, Farenheit 451.
Has anyone read White Noise by Don Delillo?? That’s of my favorites besides Fahrenheit 451…
The Unwind series
Ooooh The Slated series and the series that began with Wool are good too. Both mainly YA though.
1984 since it’s the origin of Big Brother
The Silenced by DeVita. Don’t read reviews or background info first…It is not what it seems…ending and source material make it an even better read….
Janie Stewart I never read reviews before reading a book. Too often you can be turned off a good book by bad reviews. Thanks for the suggestion?.
