Mainly, I am reading The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood, but there are a few others floating around (The Glass Bead Game by Hesse, Reading Lolita in Tehran).

Just finished some Schoupenhaur essay's, and 'A quest for Origin's' by Kerry Howe(a NZ history book).

Also 'Child of God' by Cormac Mc'Carthy -- really good, in a twisted psychotic kind of way.

Now reading 'Less than Zero' by Bret Easton Ellis, and 'A Encyclopedia of Classical, Celtic and Nordic Mythology.

This is going a couple pages back, but I love Russian literature. Seems like almost every book has a depressing ending, but they are so well-written that I can't help but love them. Ever read Doctor Zhivago by Pasternak or Anna Karenina by Tolstoy? They're both excellent. Right now I'm working on The Idiot by Dostoevsky and I'm planning on reading War and Peace by Tolstoy.
