Dystopia is a form of literature that explores social and political structures. It is a creation of a nightmare world - unlike its opposite, Utopia, which is an ideal world. Dystopia is often characterized by an authoritarian or totalitarian form of government. It often features different kinds of repressive social control systems, a lack or total absence of individual freedoms and expressions, and a state of constant warfare or violence. Many novels combine both Dystopia and Utopia, often as a metaphor for the different directions humanity can take in its choices, ending up with one of the two possible futures. Goodreads
A dystopia (from the Greek δυσ- and τόπος, alternatively, cacotopia, kakotopia, or anti-utopia) is a community or society that is in some important way undesirable or frightening. It is literally translated as "not-good bad-place" and synonymous with the opposite of utopia. Such societies appear in many artistic works, particularly in stories set in a future. Dystopias are often characterized by dehumanization, totalitarian governments, environmental disaster, or other characteristics associated with a cataclysmic decline in society. Dystopian societies appear in many sub-genres of fiction and are often used to draw attention to real-world issues regarding society, environment, politics, economics, religion, psychology, ethics, science, and/or technology, which if unaddressed could potentially lead to such a dystopia-like condition. -Wikipedia

I really like the Dustlands series by Moira Young.
The Hunger Games :)
Not a Drop to Drink by Mindy McGinnis
The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken. LOVE!
The Selection series by Kiera Cass was/is really good! Thanks for the chance to win! :)
Hunger Games!
My personal favorite would have to be the Wool Omnibus. Really it's the whole series: Wool, Shift and Dust. Amazing books.
The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken, Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, Divergent by Veronica Roth, and Mazerunner by James Dashner
the hunger games
Divergent! :)
Delirium and The Testing are also nice dystopias!
Thanks for the giveaway! :)
I still haven't have favorite for this genre
The first and so far best Dystopia I've read is The Hunger Games trilogy :) I also LOVE the Lunar Chronicles Series by Marissa Meyer and the Slated series by Teri Terry
Divergent
The Chaos Walking Trilogy by Patrick Ness
I'd say my favorites are the first two books in the Birthright trilogy by Gabrielle Zevin. I haven't read the third yet or I'd say it's a fave too! It's probably the first dystopian series I tried, and I really loved it. A world where chocolate is illegal. Sounds more like a horror story, no?
I have read so many. Of course I love the Hunger Games series, but right now I'm really loving The Darkest Minds books.
Catching Fire
I am new to this genre although I can tell I will love it, I read Divergent, and would love to get into some more books in this genre, Great hop thank you
Oi! Don't think I could pick just one...there's The Hunger Games (though wasn't crazy about Mockingjay)...The Mercy series by C.C. Marks (Edge of Mercy, Heart of Mercy, etc.). Meritropolis by Joel Ohman was great as well!
The best dystopian I've read would probably be Legend. Thanks for the giveaway! :)
I haven't read any dystopian novels yet. Thanks for having the giveaway.
The Hunger Games
The Hunger Games.
The Under the Never Sky series was pretty good.
I also like Divergent a lot, but just the first book, the other 2: bleh.
thank you for the giveaway!
~~carla c. on the raffle.
The Hunger Games trilogy
Acid by Emma Pass is the best Dystopian book I've read so far! Such a great book and I hope there is going to be more!
Hunger Games, Maze Runner, Divergent series...so many
Legend by Marie Lu
Steel Lily by Megan Curd and I also loved Divergent.
Flesh by Kylie Scott is one of my favorite dystopians!!
The Hunger Games! :D
Angelfall by Susan Ee!

This is so typical and boring, but my favourite dystopian novel is The Hunger Games. Thanks for the giveaway! :)
I recently read Remake. It was a really great dystopian novel that was different from others I've read.
Dede
I really loved The Hunger Games!
Shatter Me series!
I love shatter me! and ashes
The Hunger Games and Chaos Walking installments :D
I would say Wool and Shift by Hugh Howey.
Sadly haven't read many yet, but Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion was good :)
Delirium by Lauren Oliver!
Mary DeBorde
Wow! Too hard to pick just one lol
But, I really enjoyed The Life as We Knew It Series by Susan Beth Pfeffer!! :)
The Hunger Games series are fantastic@@
I love The Maze from The Maze Runner :)
That would have to be the Hunger Games series!
It may sound obvious, but it was The Hunger Games trilogy. The best fresh renewal of dystopia recently... ;)
My favorite is 'Fahrenheit 451' :)
Krysta B.
One of my favorite is Flash Bang by Meghan March.
I think the best Dystopia book that I've read would be the Hunger Games series.
I think the best Dystopia I've read is Divergent! Thanks for the giveaway!(Valentina -on the raffle)
The Hunger Games trilogy
the hunger games series..
thx u :)
I have always though that Brave New World was a brilliant dystopia. I find the oppressive ones a bit ridiculous since the citizens should have revolted long ago. But why would anyone revolt against a government where everyone is "happy"?
The Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews.
probably the Lunar Chrinicles serie, even i havent read the last one =(
Partials series by dan Wells and The Hunger Games series!
Legend by Marie Lu is one of the best Dystopian book!!! :)
Thanks for the giveaway :)
The Host by Stephenie Meyer :)
Thanks for the giveaway :)
Under the Never Sky!
I loved both Survival Colony 9 and Red Rising.
Divergent and the Hunger Games.
I loved Divergent, The Hunger Games and The Knife of Never Letting Go. Thank you for the giveaway, enjoy your day. :)
Hands down Battle Royale!!
Mary G Loki
My favorite is still The Hunger Games :)
I must say Delirium and Hunger Games :p
Honestly, I have only read one so far, The Unidentified. I have watched film adaptations of The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Divergent and enjoyed them. I'm sure the books are better.
Thanks :)
I think the best one was the hunger game series, I just couldn't get enough of the books.
