Are you looking for another dystopian read then? I really liked Matched, but it's definitely more of a love story set in a dystopian world. I also liked Across the Universe which is sort of dystopian in space.
Or are you looking for a different element altogether?
I always go back to the classics any time I feel like I've read too many books I disliked (I also disliked Divergent). Sometimes, it's best to get out of the genre altogether and take a break.
In looking at the older posts, they discussed this a little when the bookclub read The Hunger Games here. You might find some good suggestions there



It was great, really fast paced and adventurous. It's Dystopian and I read it in one sitting, a good Hunger Games-esque read.
Also the Chaos Walking trilogy by Patick Ness is one of my all time FAVOURITES, It's also Dystopian, but it's TOTALLY original, and in my book the writing/storyline ect outstrip THG easily!
Here's book 1 --->

Choose Blood Red road if you want a great adventure story, and pick The Knife of Never Letting Go, if you want something unforgettable...
I hope that helps, and if you do read either of them, let me know what you think :D

Hope I helped. Let me know :D


I'm going to second that one. I loved Across the Universe and liked its sequel A Million Suns. Can't wait for the conclusion Shades of Earth.
