Zoo City by Lauren Beukes
4.0

Really liked this one. There are a lot of overlapping plot ideas that somewhat cohere at the end (which wraps up a little *too* neatly, in a gruesome way). It is vaguely reminiscent of Phillip Pullman's Dark Materials, except the protagonist carries an animal with her because she is a criminal.
