Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood
Rating- 5 out of 5
Synopsis from B&N: Humanity here equals Snowman, and in Snowman's recollections Atwood re-creates a time much like our own, when a boy named Jimmy loved an elusive, damaged girl called Oryx and a sardonic genius called Crake. But now Snowman is alone, and as we learn why we also learn about a world that could become ours one day.
From me: This is a favorite of mine. It's very much a dystopian novel. I had to read this book for my literature class in college and was instantly enamored with the story as well as the characters. I don't always know what to say about the book without giving too much away so I'll just say a few things. It's a very quick read that pulls you in within the first chapter and also you will NEVER look at chicken nuggets the same. After reading this I couldn't eat them for a while.
