Hoping for some help with dystopian and/apocalyptic novel recommendations for my DD15.
She has read and enjoyed the following (which I think fit this):
Hunger Games
Handmaid's Tale
The Road
1984
Brave New World

There will be more I am sure but those are the ones I can recount off the top of my head.
Argh just noticed error in thread title!

The other margaret atwood one dystopian trilogy is really good - Oryx and Crake & After the Flood and Madd Adam.

Also the Emily St John Mandel ones, Station 11 and Sea of Tranquility and The Glass Hotel.

I love this kind of fiction and Station 11 (and the tv show) and Oryx and Crake are 2 of my favourite books.
