I literally sit with the Amazon app open when watching these videos and add the books that sounds good to my wishlist

I think "dystopian" has more political connotations, I mean, yes, things go to hell, but mostly regarding government. freedom of speech, basic human rights, things among that line. If it is just "things went to hell" it could be, like natural disasters, civilization gone to hell, no government at all, and that will be post-apocalyptic. I think. And those 2 are different genres.

Dystopian: set in the future, a corrupt government ruins everything

2:00 Unwind by Neal Shusterman 3:03 Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi 3:45 Ready Player One by Ernest Cline 4:53 This Savage Song by Victoria Schwab 5:48 Reboot by Amy Tintera 6:41 Fire and Flood by Victoria Scott 7:29 The Darkest Minds Trilogy by Alexandra Bracken 8:48 Legend Trilogy by Marie Lu 9:29 Divergent Trilogy by Veronica Roth 10:47 The Uglies Series by Scott Westerfield

The Legend series is truly amazing.

I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but that shatter me book cover 😍😍😍

I really enjoyed the Testing trilogy. It was kind of similar to the Hunger Games but more intellectual testing instead of physical.

I recommend the Giver Series by Lois Lowry. It tells stories of this community who grew up within a perfect world. But under the surface, everything isn't so happy-go-lucky.

I am definitely picking up some of these recommendations that I haven't read yet. I always love a good dystopian book. Side note, I will never forgive Veronica Roth for the ending of Allegiant. lol Take care!

Omg when you said "that's where the US is headed with this next presidential debate" I DIED 😂😂😂

uhm in divergent you also have the faction amity known for their kindness

"everything goes to crap" 😅😅

I loved the legend trilogy too! I knew I wasn't crazy it is good but some people think it's unoriginal which isn't true (to me anyway) since its plot and plot twist were so different from others. It holds a special place in my heart.☺️❤️

My favourite dystopian series: - legend by Marie lu - The darkest minds (DO NOT WATCH THE MOVIE, YOU WILL RIP YOUR HAIR OUT!!) - the maze runner (i only watched the movies, didn't read the books) - slated (so original and unique!!)

All of the Unwind books are amazing. You should read the rest they are great!

Uglies trilogy was the first dystopian I ever read back in middle school before the dystopian craze started and I loved! I've read a few of these but I still need to pick up the darkest minds! Great recommendations :-)

I was disappointed that you didn't mention Lois Lowry's books, starting with The Giver. Recommend The Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler.

I just read unwind and loved it!! I needed to order part 2 right away!

YESSSSS DIVERGENTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT (sorry I got so hyped when you said "next up is divergent")

A really good series I 100% recommend is The Lunar Chronicles. It has 4 books in the series and they get better each time. The characters are based off of fairy tales. For example: Cinderella, little red riding hood, Rapunzel and Snow White. It has a bit sci-fy but like damn. It's action packed with cute couples. It has its own unique plot. I freaking love the series. I'm not the best at review stuff, search it up for better description because I suck. But read it now. You can thank me later.

Yes!!!! Unwind is an amazing series, my favorite, highly recommend

I just find you with this video, and I can't help myself to subscribe you and watch your playlists. I really like how you speak about books and that energy got me. Thank you🤩

Yes Divergent! I loved Allegiant too! I think my favorite dystopian though is Battle Royale by Koushun Takami, it's amazing

Thank you so much for the recommendations! Also, your book collection in the background is beautiful!

I've had the Unwind ebook for a while but didn't even think of reading it... but THE WAY YOU DESCRIBED IT WAS SO COOL!!! I will read it!

I literally love the shatter me series with all my heart

I love the Divergent trilogy

I definitely read many dystopian books and have problem to decide which read next. Good to know there are some good titles I haven't read yet. Thanks for this list! :)

great video! my fav is 1984 which is a classic, but it has that scary dystopian element tho its really good!

I love you so much!! You made me get back to reading, and your voice is just perfect!!😍😘

OMG SOMEONE OTHER THAN ME LOVES ALLEGIANT!!!! THANK YOU!!!

Ya I'm glad your in Canada maybe I'll meet you or see you someday because I love your videos and you're so awesome!

I loove your videos!! you're so organised with them so inspirational 😍❤ I'm so happy when you post. ly!! 😊❤

Unwind series is awesome ! Read the whole thing and if u have an e reader , this book serries has links where the author pulls in real world facts/perhaps inspiration.

I recommend Unwind to everyone, I need more people to read it - I adored it!

That was so helpful, thanks!

I LOVE LEGEND SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Legend trilogy is some of the greatest books I have ever read!!!! Love them!!!!

Yay!! Thanks for this!

ready player one has been on my TBR for so long!! have to get to it :p

Thank you, I'll definitely check this outs!

Oh my god! How did I not know that unwind was a series.. I read this book such a long time ago (must have been in junior high) and I loved it!!

Yes! Love ur videos!

I just finished the Legend Series on Monday and out of all the books I’ve read, which is a lot, it was probably my favorite. I cried, I smiled, I laughed, I put my hand over my eyes and said “why would you do that, that’s stupid” and I’ve had every emotion possible from that book.

Thank you for the great recommendation. More books to add to my ever growing list 😊

Yayyy!!!! This was so much help!! Also great recommendations! Thank you! 😁

The Maze Runner is my favorite book...she just broke me.

Unwind is my FAVORITE book of all time

Unwind is a great book!

My civics teacher actually introduced us to the Unwind series a couple years ago. She showed the whole class a short film about it and I was hooked from then on. It's a great series and so much happens and I had so many emotions while reading this.

I love reading! I really like your videos and recommendations. I am definitely subscribing! ❤️

9:30 LOVE THIS.

The unwind dystology is absolutely amazing i highly recommended!

I am SO DEFINITELY using this as a source for my termpaper in Dystopian novels 😂

Ah I love Unwind, I love the whole series. It's worth finishing they get so much better

UNWIND!!! YASSSSSSS, READ THE SECOND BOOK!!!

Yessss Legend series is my favorite!!!!! You also need to read The Testing series by Joelle Charbonneau and The Fifth Wave series (forget author😂)

My top dystopian books: -mortal engines, predators gold, infernal devices and a darkling plain by Philip Reeve -night flights by Philip Reeve -fever crumb, a web of air and scrivener’s moon by Philip Reeve -girls with sharp sticks by Suzanne Young -road to winter by Mark Smith

Legend series is one of my personal favorite series ever

Also another great dystopian series is the Young Elites series by Marie Lu. It goes into the side of the villains and the heroes and really uses the metaphor that is the book to truly understand our deepest darkest fears and actions :)

Oops forgot Amity the Peaceful in the Divergent factions! I still love dystopians even though I knowwww its a dying trend, I can't get over them!!

Unwind is sooooo good

The testing is a cool dystopian too!!

the uglies series is such a throwback, i read them so so long ago and now want to read them again

Another really cool one is Stung! I really liked that book! I only read the first (it’s basically one book) but there is a sequel told from a different perspective!

I love your videos so much !

A few good one's are Angelfall by Susan Ee and Flawed by Cecelia Ahern

Ready player one is one of my favorite books!

Uglies is amazing!

I just googled most of them and was hally to see many have been made into films as well! Will be reading/listening to them and then watching the films after wards😍

Great recommendations. I'm going to pick some of these up, even though they are classified as YA . I feel they can be read by adults as well

If you like unwind you should read the rest of the series there’s 3 other books, as well as his arc of the scythe trilogy

Your videos make me smile

I read unwind in 6th grade which was 2 years ago and then flew through the next three and then a new one came out less than a year ago on my birthday.

I recommend The City Of Ember! I’ve only read the first book, but it was the first ever dystopian book that I read back when I was in fourth grade. I don’t remember much from it, but I remember really enjoying it!!

You should totally finish reading the Unwind dystology.. It's my favourite series of all time, it's just amazing x It would be such a shame not read the other three. Unwind definitely does NOT get enough credit, such a shame :( x (love your videos by the way, your collection is brilliant) x

great list! I really love ready player one, unwind, uglies, legend and divergent ❤

omg OMG please read shatter me they are AMAZING!!! Alsooo there are 5 shatter me books now and another coming out next year. It is my all time favorite series favorite book series!

Am I the only one who loves Allegiant? It's actually my favourite of the three 💖 Yeah the ending is heartbreaking but the whole book is just great.

My new favorite channel!!! :)

The legend series is the best set of books I have ever read other that Brandon Sandersons books and Isaac asimofs books

Thanks for your insights on these books! You should check out the dystopian post-apoc survival series the Three Sisters Trilogy.

Omg YESS.. Unwind!!! It is fucking amazing.. You should continue the unwind series!! It gets betterrrrr

i just finished the 5th book of Shatter Me and gaaaawd its so good

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Ready Player One!! I actually got to meet Ernest Cline a few weeks ago when he came to my college and he was so nice! I am so lucky that I have a personalized signed copy and this book will always have a special place in my heart.

i loved unwind so much. i had to read it for class. we were allowed to choose which books to read from a variety of books. i was pulled in by the abortion aspect. i agree, i have the second book of the series but i haven’t gone past page 50. i don’t mind it though. i’m satisfied with the first book. i’ll get around to read it someday.

This Savage Song is definitely a dystopian! I enjoyed it quite a bit. (August Flynn is a puppy) I also loved The Darkest minds and Legend!

I read divergent a bit ago and I'm almost done with insurgent which are the reasons why I started to like reading again after and i recently realized dystopian is my favorite genre since the hunger games and divergent are 2 of my favorite series so thank youuu

hey, I did a video like this one on my channel like one month ago (but in french), and presented some of the books you mentioned in your video, like Hunger Games, Divergent and Legend (my favs dystopias by the way!). And like you, I didn't like that much the Maze Runner. And awesome video!

I think that you should have included the Scythe series as a recommendation

Did you know the Uglies series has a 4th almost spin-off book called Extras? I loved the original trilogy, but Extras turned out to be my favorite because all of the parallels it has to our world as it is now. You don't need to reread the original trilogy because they do little more than name drop the old characters. You should pick it up!

Ready player one is insanely good! Highly recomend as well!

This video is the reason I'm a reader now

I love, love, love the Maze Runner trilogy. It's not like anything I've ever read before (but then again I haven't read too many dystopians). There's lots of twists and turns and unexpected things happening. I highly recommend it.

Ordered Ready Player One😀SO EXCITED TO READ IT

I recommend the testing series, it is an amazing read imo

There’s a new book in the shatter me series called restore me and more to come you should totally read it xxxxx

i totally agree with views on allegiant. i liked it a lot...

That U.S election comment, though...lol! You know we're in trouble when people in other countries know we're in trouble!!

Utopian and dystopian are not completely opposite, actually dystopian is an utopian society which has been too far with its "harmonious" rules ! :D

UnWind is my absolute favorite Dystopia, read the whole thing it only gets better. WAY better
