Fuck, going back to uni in September really killed my ability to read.
The best time to start reading again would have been October. The second best time is now.

Damn, this is really getting good!
My opinion of Bunny has tanked, and I'm finding I have a lot of respect for Henry. Interested to see how the story will progress from here...

Still going well. A couple of points I wasn't sure about, but everything else makes perfect sense.

I must say I am quite enjoying this so far, and my ability to visualise the story seems to be returning. Also, what Prof. Morrow has to say about madness and beauty is intriguing. I cannot wait to continue!

Just bought this. An absolute steal at £8.99, and I'm looking forward to reading it.

Pretty good so far. I especially like the idea of Disappointment Panda.

Now that I've finished Oryx and Crake, I believe I'll give this book another go.
I barely read a few pages before I last put this down, so I suppose I'd may as well start from the beginning again.

Content warning Oryx and Crake character arc spoilers!!!
I must say that this was an excellent read. Book-wise, it was a lot of firsts for me: the first book I've finished this year, the first book where I bet on the wrong horse (so to speak; turns out Crake isn't so great after all and Snowman is a better man at the end than he is in the middle), the first book where I couldn't possibly think where the story might go in the sequel, and of course the first Margaret Atwood work I have ever read. I would also say it was the first book where I disliked the protagonist as a person, but that honour goes to Holden Caulfield ("The Catcher In The Rye" by J. D. Salinger).
All in all, a very good book and a very good story. I must read more Atwood, and I can barely wait to read the sequel, "The Year of the Flood".

Chapter two and we’re already talking about how “AI” is supported by and reinforces a eugenics based view of the world. Hell yeah.

I've picked up and put down books a lot this year, but I have not finished a single one yet. With just four and a bit months to go, let's hope I can do it this time...
