I'm currently rereading Ashenden, then probably The Birthday Party, then get new stuff on Monday...probably the complete works of de Sade. I don't know. A lot of the books I want, I can't get in shops.

What are other people reading, and planning to read?

oh don't even get me started sunhawk. i have six books i'm juggling right now but with college and a general lethargy i haven't even finished bleeding edge yet.

Bleeding Edge was decent, I thought. Shame this board hates it so much. As much as Inherent Vice.

i haven't been paying attention to the board's reaction to it, but i loved inherent vice a lot more than everyone else seemed to so that's good for me at least.

This is my new reading so far this year. Hoping to get a few more books before the end of the year. Always hard to decide, though. I discovered today that there's some new Donna Tartt book out, and it's damn long (about 800 pages in hardcover, I think). Is it worth reading? Also thinking about that Man Booker winning book, looks long and good.

1Q84 is alright, The Pale King is really good. More people should read TPK.

Currently reading Les Misérables in the original French, albeit at a snail's pace. Not sure if I'm biting off more than I can chew with this one.

I'm also halfway through Oblomov. Good book.

Les Mis is about 1,200 pages long. You for real? This does seem like a bit much to manage, I guess.
