Just finished The Bell Jar (and erm.. My Booky Wook by Russell Brand).
Now reading The Sea by John Banville. A fair few people are reading it at the moment - might they have been prompted to buy it by the recent documentary on Banville, as I was? It's brilliant anyway.
I'm also reading Margaret Atwood's The Blind Assassin, which I'm not loving all that much yet, but I suppose I've 600 odd pages to warm to it. And Rebecca and Rowena by W.M. Thackeray. It's pretty poor, in my opinion, but perhaps it was a mistake to buy a book which is a parody of 'Ivanhoe', never having read 'Ivanhoe'. Ah well.
Oh, and Henry James' Portrait of a Lady, but that's kind of on the back burner at the moment.

Just finished "The Game" by Neil Strauss. Good read but are some people really that socially retarded? Could of done with taken out about 100 pages from the middle section though as it dragged a bit.
Starting on "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat" by Oliver Sacks.
