Dystopian young adult adventures are some of the most popular books in modern literature. The Divergent series is at the top of the bestseller charts, and the Divergent books have inspired a generation of dystopian readers. We’ve already written about books to read if you like The Hunger Games and decided it was time for a second post in our YA dystopian recommendations: books like Divergent. When selecting books similar to Divergent, we focused on dystopian societies, female protagonists, and plenty of adventure. And, of course, all of these books to read like Divergent are new in 2015.
Though none of these books are exactly like the Divergent books (where’s the fun in that?), they all have a similar appeal. Some are more fantasy, some more scifi, some more modern – but they’re all worth your time.
