A Clockwork Orange- Book Recommendation

So far, I really like like A Clockwork Orange. It is about a group of crime-committing teenagers(droogs) in the future, led by a fifteen year old named Alex. The criminals take over the town at night. A Clockwork Orange is science fiction because it takes place in the future. If you want to be more specific, you could call it dystopian because it is in a corrupted, futuristic society. It is very exciting, right from the beginning. Alex and his droogs are always doing something, so there is a lot of action and suspense. I enjoy reading books with a lot of action because it makes it more exciting when there is so much going on at once. So far, I give this book four out of five stars. I think the author's writing is very good, besides the fact that he uses a lot of the same words. I think the characterization is good too, because the characters are very developed. I think this book is targeted towards young adults/adults because it has a lot of advanced writing and the plot is kind of mature. So far, I really enjoy the book and I think it will only get better!
