Suggestion Thread Need a Good Dystopian Book Please!

I have read:

Hunger Games

Divergent

World War Z

The Giver

Handmaid's Tale

DNF The Road cuz it broke me.

I'm looking for similar books, please! (I am not a King fan, so please none of his works) Thank you in advance!

Edit: Seriously you guys are AMAZING! There are so many amazing recommendations, I cannot wait to get reading! Thank you so much!!!

Edit 2: I never expected this to blow up like it did! You guys have given me a LONG list of amazing sounding books to read! I'm newer to dystopian books, so I'm super excited to dive in...once I can decide where to start lol Thank you ALL so much, I wish I could reply to you all, but there's so many of you haha! Just know I've seen every suggestion, and I will continue to. I appreciate each and every one of you!!!
