It's official. I despised Oryx and Crake. Useless piece of preachy crap.
I am starting In the Garden of Beasts by Erik Larson.
He wrote Devil in the White City, which I loved, and Thunderstruck, which I at least kind of liked, although the story wasn't anywhere near as exciting as Devil in the White City.
This one is about the experiences of an American Family that goes to Berlin in the early 1930s. There usually seem to be two elements to Larsen's stories, so Hitler's early years in power is one piece, not sure what the other will be yet. I've only just finished the prologue.
