I agree, for the same reason that I liked Blade Runner better than Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? The film adaptations were changed enough that there's no scene-to-scene comparison ("That's not how it happened in the book!"). Additionally, both books are good, but neither aged particularly well. Both exhibit "women, amirite?" sexism and distractingly anachronistic visions of a dystopian future common in early SF, but smoothed out of the later films.
Make Room! Make Room! and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? I've just resolved to make both part of this year's reading challenge. I've meant to read both for quite a while.
