I'd like to tack on M. T. Anderson's "Feed." It's a great dystopia novel that I would hope will resonate with tech consumed kids, who think nothing of baring their lives online for convenience's/peer's sake, without a thought as to who else might be reading & collecting that information. It is a great intro to Brave New World, if you choose to include Huxley. Also, selecting books solely based on genre is imho quite broad-- I'd recommend selecting an interesting theme that could be teased out of everything you read over the course of the semester. For example, in a 19th C. English Literature class I took, the overarching theme was social & natural evolution. We read the Origin of Species, and then studied how that influenced/created the zeitgeist. The professor didn't come out and directly say, "Here is your theme," but by encouraging critical reading, we discovered it on our own.
