I pretty much love depressing dystopian type stuff and to be honest I found that book thoroughly boring.

That was my experience as well. Read it when I was in my twenties, maybe worth revisiting after a decade+…

I’ve heard it’s a very different read once you’ve had kids.

I'm very fond of Margaret Atwood. Oryx and Crake is great.

Check out these and see if the blurb interests you! I really enjoyed these

The Slynx - Tatyana Tolstaya (actually very funny and satirical)

Before and After - Andrew Shanahan (very different take on the genre)

A female centric one I remember really enjoying was Into the Forest by Jean Heglund
