I would like a list of dystopian novels to read over the next year, please!?

The books I most enjoy reading are normally dystopian novels. My favorites currently are 1984, The Anthem, and Brave New World. If y'all could just list some good dystopias that you have read I would greatly appreciate it. It can range anywhere from old obscure classics to new authors. I'm just curious in expanding my knowledge on the subject. Your help is much appreciated!

    Your librarian can point you to a whole section of them.

    My favorite has always been Emergence by David Palmer. I did like Ghost Country by Patrick Lee, but the characters are 'cardboard' and it's the plot that is unique and keeps the attention.

    Also, Wool by Hugh Howey is fantastic. You can't get more dystopian than Wool.
