[LM_NET] HS: Books like 1984, Uglies, etc.

[Kristin Sandel <ksandel@MASON.K12.MI.US>]

Hello,

One of our English teachers is looking for young adult novels with
themes similar to those in 1984, Uglies, and Feed.  Basically, dystopian
novels - he wants to do literature circles.  I have a huge list of
possible books (840+) but what I need are books you KNOW are good reads.
 This is for high schoolers, but he's not so much worried about the
difficulty of the book (he's not doing 1984 because the kids aren't
connecting to it and have found it difficult) - the content is more
important.

Thank you!
