    Reading Moby Dick and Suttree at the moment, both very good. Suttree can be fairly depressing and funny at the same time.

    Finishing The Corrections, by Jonathan Frantzen

    Started ages ago and stopped for no reason. Its really excellent, I love it.

    I'm almost finished reading Villette by Charlotte Bronte, and this is one of the books I have in line to read next...so don't know whether to go with The Corrections, Darkmans by Nicola Barker or Hellfire by Mia Gallagher. Any thoughts will be appreciated!

    Also went to the library today and have another stack of books in line...I'm like some sort of bulimic reader, binging on books can't possibly read all at once:p
