I finished a Feast for Crows lastnight. I've only started on the sample of A Dance with Dragons, but not downloaded the whole book yet.

I'm currently plodding through Steinbeck's masterwork East of Eden
Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy is the best book I've ever read and a film adaptation is coming in the next few years I believe. |

I liked Ian McEwan's In Between the Sheets and The Comfort of Strangers. Both were exxcellent.
I just got done w Pulp by Bukowski which was really funny. Now I'm just reading this big book about the Beatles before bed/when the kid is asleep. |
