Brave New World. Also Doomsday Book and To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis. And I liked Feed and Into the Drowning Deep by Mira Grant.

+1 on Roads must Roll (I *love* something wicked but it’s not sci fi, but Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 is, and that should get a shout out)
+1 on Brave New World and Doomsday Book
+1 on Jurassic Park
Adding Parable of the Sower & Kindred from Octavia Butler (one of these might be cheating a little, but not much), Yiddish Policeman’s Union by Michael Chabon (so fun!), The Garden of Iden by Cage Baker (and all her “the company” stories), Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep (or any other Philip K Dick), Woman on the Edge of Time Marge Piercy, My Sister’s Keeper by Picoult, and Never Let Me Go (or Klara and the Sun) by Ishiguro, China Moutain Zhang by McHugh…. I could keep going but let’s end with….
