Dystopian recommendations needed

[SlashBeef]

I'm just getting into dyspotian novels. Really liked 1984, Handmaid's Tale and I've just read The Marriage Act. I'm keen to read more books in the same vein.
Not keen on too much Sci fi, aliens, etc.

Other Margaret Atwood eg Oryx and Crake
The gate to Women’s Country
Gift upon the Shore
Young adult stuff like Divergent/ Hunger Games
John Christopher eg Sword of the Spirits

Brilliant, thank you. I have actually read The Hunger Games, forgot that one. I've always tended to shy away from YA fiction but I really enjoyed that series.

The choice by Claire Wade.

Anything by Kazuo Ishiguro

Klara and the sun

Never let me go

My favourite genre!!

The Road by Cormac McCarthy
Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King
The Stand also Stephen King
Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
1984 by George Orwell

Station Eleven by Emily St John Mandel

Brave New World

The Warehouse - Rob Hart

Anything by Christina Dalcher.

I loved The Silence Project.
I've just read Tender is the Flesh, and really enjoyed it.

There's a book by Dorian Lynskey, "The Ministry of Truth", about Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four. It discusses books which influenced, and were influenced by, Orwell's novel.

I who have never known men - Jacqueline harpman - is excellent. If you enjoyed handmaids tale you'll like it.

Wool trilogy (silo) - Hugh Howey - the first one has been made into a TV series but that doesn't touch the sides of the book.

Silo 49 - Ann Chirsty - reading these at the moment, set in the same world as the Wool trilogy, different author but very good.

Arthur C Clarke Rama.

I remember enjoying Arthur C Clarke's Rama series.

The Ministry of Truth has now been ordered from the library

Widowland by CJ Carey
The Second Sleep by Robert Harris

I like dystopian and alternate reality, here are a few of my favourites:

Emily St John Mandel - especially Station Eleven, Sea of Tranquility
Claire North
David Mitchell - especially Slade House, Cloud Atlas
Kazuo Ishiguro - especially Never Let me Go

The death of grass.
I love this genre too 😊

Would the recent Man Booker Prize fall into this genre? That's great.

The School for Good Mothers by Jessamine Chan

Definitely Never Let Me Go, if you haven't read it.

I also second The Stand by Stephen King. I'm actually reading that myself at the moment, for the sixth or seventh time. I love it to bits.

Thank you so much! So many to look into. I got a Kindle for Christmas and I'm really looking forward to trying some of these out.

I’ve just finished Light over Liskeard by Louis de Bernieres which was good and very thought provoking.
