Are we considering dystopian fiction as part of this category? I just finished American War by Omar El Akkad which takes place in 2075-2095 and is about a second civil war in the United States.

Sounds like SF to me, if in a different way than the traditional space opera. But I'd consider any non-magical, future-setting book to be SF, I think.

It's categorized as sci fi on the book's page, so I would say so too.
