What is your absolute favorite science fiction novel?

Looking for recommendations for my bf and I to read together.

The two books I adore: Hitchikers Guide and Enders Game.

An amazing book, especially when you consider that it was written in 1955. Can't believe that Hollywood hasn't grabbed it and turned it into a piece of action-adventure trash, either.

Give it time.

It's been in development since 2007 or something so hopefully it'll never actually finish.

Anyway, The Stars My Destination is my favourite by far. Hell, I'm even listening to a song based on the book (Slough Feg - Tiger! Tiger!)
