Dystopian Novels, A Favorite

I found Lauren DeStefano's book, WITHER, interesting. I put it in the caliber of most Young Adult authors, as there were things that I felt were inconsistent to the "futuristic" advances and limits placed in the book. However, I could read the novel quickly and I was not distracted by poor writing. She's beneath Suzanne Collins' THE HUNGER GAMES but miles above Stephanie Meyer's Twilight series. There were obvious gaps in the story that I would have preferred to be filled in, or more development perhaps, but it was still an interesting read and I wasn't left at the end thinking that it was a waste of time. Of course, she has a leg-up since I'm a sucker for dystopian novels anyway.
