Lets turn this thread into a book suggestion thread, itll quickly run out of steam unless we read 2 books a week =)

My favorite reads are science fiction, and i would love some suggestions as i dont have the time to filter all the crap, since i have many interests.

Heres a couple of science fiction books i really enjoyed and suggest:

Pre-apocalyptic tale, in the form of a diary of a 12 year old girl, as shit hits the fan in Manhattan:

Cyberpunk classic, with a main story and a couple of short stories at the end that cover the later years of the story explored in the first main one. Humanity is split among many factions, 2 being the mechanists (Cyborgs) and the shapers(genetic engineers):

A ship that drifts through space with thousands of inhabitants that forgot what was the ships mission when it was first set off in space, generations ago:

A collection of short stories, uneven id say but the one called rogue farm and the story with the 2 bear things are worth the cover price alone:

This one not science fiction really, but dark fantasy and really interesting. Its a collection of short stories, the story called cram i thought was especially good.
