Sarah Bronte Connor thanks for adding those 3 distopian matriarchal books. you can also add distopian patriarchal books if you find any of course since they are less common. you can also add novel were religions are banned with jail or death sentence, any religions including catholic and Christianity and many others more.

Lori S. I would suggest Mother Lines by Suzie McKee Charnas too. I've not read that one, but it involves both a patriarchal and a matriarchal system.
