I enjoy YA dystopian books. I've read quite a few, but am wondering if anyone has any suggestions I could try.
Post-apocalyptic I like too so any recommendations would be good :)

Oh man. So, ignore the ones you've read.

The Hunger Games (Suzanne Collins)
Divergent (Veronica Roth)
Under the Never Sky (Veronica Rasi)
Mindjacked (Susan Kaye Quinn)
Legend (Marie Lu)
Ready Player One (Ernest Cline)
Reckoners (Brandon Sanderson)
Matched (Ally Condie)
The Selection (Kiera Cass)
The 100 (Cass Morgan)
Shatter Me (Tahereh Mafi)

This list is in no way exhaustive.

The Chaos Walking trilogy by Patrick Ness is my favourite series.
They are also currently making a movie out of it - so if you enjoy movie adaptations, get on this one!

If you like dystopian books, you'll probably enjoy Cinda Williams Chima. The Heir Chronicles involves the overthrow of a magical shadow society. The Seven Realms is set in a fantasy world but it also consists of changing the world as its been.

Try reading The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken. It takes place in a society not far from ours, except 98% of the population of children have died from a mysterious disease. The remaining 2% develop powers, so the government forces them into camps. This one girl Ruby escapes and meets others along the way. It’s often compared to X-Men but I can assure you that there are fewer similarities than there may seem to be! Overall, it’s a fun read.

Awesome series, also being made into a movie. I think it's due to be released next month :D

I agree with the one person who suggested The Maze Runner series by James Dashner. I loved it.

Delirium trilogy by Lauren Oliver. Two kindred spirits find love in a world where love is a disease that needs to be cured and the infected need to be killed. I loved it. Surely you will too. give it a try.
