One of the best is 'The Giver' by Lois Lowry. It presents a seemingly perfect yet deeply flawed society where emotions and memories are controlled. Another great one is 'Among the Hidden' by Margaret Peterson Haddix. It shows a world where population control has led to a situation where third children are illegal. 'City of Ember' by Jeanne DuPrau is also excellent. It depicts a post - apocalyptic underground city facing decay and the search for a way out.
Well, 'The Hunger Games' by Suzanne Collins can be considered a great middle grade dystopian novel. It has a strong young protagonist, Katniss, in a world where the Capitol forces children to fight to the death in an arena for entertainment. 'Divergent' by Veronica Roth is also good. It's set in a future Chicago divided into factions based on different virtues. And 'Matched' by Ally Condie, which is about a society that strictly controls every aspect of people's lives, including who they marry.
In my opinion, 'The Maze Runner' by James Dashner is a top - notch middle grade dystopian novel. The story of boys trapped in a maze and trying to find a way out is really engaging. 'Legend' by Marie Lu is another great one. It's set in a future where the United States has split into two warring nations. Also, 'Scythe' by Neal Shusterman. It presents a world where death has been conquered, and 'scythes' are the ones who control population by killing people in a very different kind of society.
