The Giver and Hunger Games
I always used to beg my father to read books that I liked when I was a teenager...sometimes he did after I kept on bugging him. He usually enjoyed them so when Olivia commanded me to read these I did. Both were set in a dystopian world with teenagers set in perilous situations. Both writers are great storytellers and create plausible worlds and characters. The Giver ended in a very ambiguos way that Olivia and I both interpreted in different ways. The Hunger Games ends in a less satisfying way leading into the next book in the trilogy but still is quite a good ride . I will continue to accept her recommendations.

Perhaps you should sample the Flashman chronicles.
