I'm nearly finished rereading 1984 and my appetite for dystopian books is whetted. What are some other great ones I should check out?

I own it, but just can't get motivated to start it.

What do you mean, start the book at all?

What's preventing you from opening the book?

To be honest, it's all on me. I'm not good about prioritizing my own enjoyment over work and other needs.

Oh, got it. I had to work on that myself, but I'm definitely over the hump at this point in deprioritizing work.

You know what though, I'd like to add that as soon as you read the first chapter, you're probably going to be hooked.

So if you ever do have a minute where you're thinking what to do and you enjoy reading, you're making the right decision with this book.
