The Windup Girl

What Happens when bio-terrorism becomes a tool for corporate profits? And what happens when said bio-terrorism forces humanity to the cusp of post-human evolution? In The Windup Girl, award-winning author Paolo Bacigalupi returns to the world of "The Calorie Man"( Theodore Sturgeon Memorial Award-winner, Hugo Award nominee, 2006) and "Yellow Card Man" (Hugo Award nominee, 2007) in order to address these questions.

I did not like this book at all. I read the whole thing anyway, probably because I'm genetically programmed to torture myself by finishing books I don't like. At least I'm not as bad as Emiko. By the way, Emiko was the only character in this book I liked even a little. It felt like way too much of it was not about her, and when it was about her, TERRIBLE things were happening to her and she wanted to die.
Rough. Do not recommend.
