What I'm reading, right now, is Vladimir Nabokov's The Gift--enchanting, delightful, and thoroughly sustained and controlled and fantastic so far. Which no surprise.
What I've read, during the long months of no updates: Chabon's The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, Och's 1,000 Record Covers, Lady into Fox, Devil in the Details, At the Villa of Reduced Circumstances (sporadically wonderful, but marred by a lazy plot and nearly saved by having its later half set in Colombia), The Nanny Diaries, Stranger than Fiction, The Good Body, A Massive Swelling, Perdido Street Station, Assassination Vacation, and Florence of Arabia.
The ones in bold you shouldn't miss. The others are eminently missable.
