    I keep going to the bookstore anticipating to buy Margaret Atwood's new book. Has anyone read it yet?

    Ive heard good things.

    The prequel, Oryx and Crake was great. Lots of sexual undertones.

    How can Oryx & Crake be the prequel when it's set years after mankind was wiped out, and this is set soon after the extinction?

    O&C felt like it was written in a weekend.
