Books like Divergent
Divergent was a novel debut for Veronica Roth, and what a successful debut it was! The story explores a post-apocalyptic society in which citizens are defined by their social and personality-related affiliations.
Romance, psychological stimulation and tests of endurance with the occasional devastating consequence – this novel is perfect for dystopian fiction fans.
So what comes next? What can we read that will keep us turning those pages until the very last one and still be hungry for more?
Here are some suggestions that just might keep you on the edge of your seat.
1. The Hunger Games
The Hunger Games is the first novel in the acclaimed trilogy created by Suzanne Collins. Like Divergent, The Hunger Games is firmly fixed in the fantasy genre and although it’s aimed at young adults, we’d say it can be enjoyed by all ages. A heroic 16-year-old volunteers for the 74th Hunger Games in place of her younger sister Primrose Everdeen. What ensues is a three-novel series that will capture your attention and your heart.

3. Matched
Matched is, yep – you guessed it – another dystopian young adult novel. Created by Allyson Braithwaite Condie, this is the first novel in “The Matched Trilogy”. The plot follows a society in which people are “matched” with their life partners at just 17, until Cassia Reyes decides to pry further into this process and, as we see in Divergent, questions arise concerning society’s norms and ideas. Is this society all that it seems?

6. Uglies
From author Scott Westerfeld comes sci-fi novel, Uglies. This novel portrays an extreme version of some issues faced by many today: the ever-mounting media pressure to look a certain way in society. It is set in a future post-scarcity world where inhabitants are forced to undergo extreme cosmetic surgery at the age of 16 to become “pretty”. Like in Divergent, the novel’s protagonist – Tally – soon learns that behind the scenes, society isn’t quite as it seems.
