A prolific and influential dystopic classic, Huxley’s work deals in philosophy more than character. This is a page turner that obviously inspired so many other works.

Hey. I got the Alexie book at my local public library over the summer.
So far, the McCann book is excellent. I'm only about 100 pages into it. A coworker lent it to me. I'll let you know how it is overall.
