I read Kurt Vonnegut's _Player_Piano_ and really enjoyed it. It's a story about a heavily computerized society, but the computers are vacuum tube based. "We ran the calculation, replaced all the tubes and ran it again, so we're confident in the result" sort of thing.

I also really enjoyed Andy Weir's _Project_Hail_Mary_, and _The_Martian_.
