Mating by Norman Rush

This fictional account of an anthropologist in Botswana in the early 80s is a masterpiece of literature - I’ve never read any other novels by the author but one gets the sense that anything he writes would be worth reading, although it is worth mentioning that this is a very demanding, difficult read, spanning many languages and allusions.

Both the sci-fi elements and the scientist characters are really fun and involving in this carl sagan book adaptation - but on the other hand the love interest is really annoying and the movie should’ve been 30 minutes shorter.

Maelstrom by Peter Watts

Watts’s second entry in the Rifters series doesn’t quite have the same unique magnetic characters of the first (and maybe it has slightly too many characters in general) but what it lacks in story it makes up for in prediction and world - read this to wallow in a truly terrible future dystopia that feels extremely likely.
