Favorite book on a dystopian society?

1984 but I am only 3/4 through it

The Giver is a beautiful one. I also really enjoyed Brave New World though also. I have yet to read 1984 but I plan on reading it soon!

The Giver was the first dystopian book I read that really got me hooked into more books about dystopian societies. I also like Hunger Games and Divergent which are really popular right now but I also really like the Uglies trilogy by Scott Westerfeld. It's another dystopian society where in the future, everybody gets a surgical operation to become "pretty" at 16 years old. Not getting the operation means you are "ugly" and thus an outcast in society. This book was really entertaining.

1984 was definitely a good example. I can think of the Hunger Games. Definitely a disturbing society.

I was about to say 1984 and then I remembered my love for all things Margaret Atwood, so maybe The Handmaid's Tale.

My favorite book on a dystopian society is The Hunger Games by "Suzanne Collins"

[amansmith]

I think the only book that I have read related to this is 1984. It was ok…not a favorite of mine.

I enjoyed the Hunger Games, but 1984 is definitely my favorite. It is kind of scary how much things today mirror things in that book.

I've recently enjoyed Divergent but my all time favorite would have to be The Taking by Dean Koontz. I just love his writing style and I love everything post-apocalyptic so its kind of a win-win I guess.

Julian Barnes' England, England was wonderful.
Some guy comes up with the idea that England is losing its dignity and memory as a country, so his solution is to build a miniature version of it that only contains its most stereotypical, prominent and patriotic landmarks and characters. What can go wrong?

I enjoyed the dystopian series of The Hunger Games, City of Ember, Bar Code Tattoo, and Cinder. The Cinder series was almost my favorite.

Brave New World. That book was just weird on so many levels.

I actually really enjoy the Hunger Games. I am on Mockingjay right now and these books are just quick reads for me.

I read the Darkest Minds and Legend as well. They both have potential. I do not know if I will continue with the DArkest Minds, but I have Prodigy from the Legend series. I hope it turns out good.

The Divergent books were a great concept. There are a few things I would have changed.

Fahrenheit 451

I just finished both 1984 and The Giver and both were great books.

However, 1984 ends leaving you very hopeless and little angry.

The giver is a bit more open ended; there is no closure. But it leaves you hanging on a more positive note.
