A Scanner Darkly
Philip K. Dick
A Scanner Darkly by Philip K. Dick will take you down a beautiful, dark hole into a world of drug-induced paranoia, questioning yourself (are we even really one person?), and the dark side of the war on drugs - can't recommend enough! https://t.co/uuROxWETED

Parable of the Sower
Octavia E. Butler
Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler is probably the most real-feeling dystopia we've ever read. As an example of it's prescience: in the sequel (written in 1998) there is a Christian nationalist presidential candidate in the 2032 US election. Wanna guess his election motto? https://t.co/X9F1zd6sXl
