The Road by Cormac McCarthy. Very, very depressing. Well written but kind of wish I hadn't bothered.

DD - The Kite Runner is very good and well-written. I hope you enjoy it!

keen on kean - thanks for the heads up. I was going to read that one, but I was on the fence because it seems so depressing. Maybe I'll wait on that one.

Right now, I'm reading Cat's Cradle, by Kurt Vonnegut. Strangely enough, I had never read this book before (how embarassing!)

Next in queue is either the new Harry Potter or The Talisman by Stephen King.

I'm rereading Summer Sisters by Judy Blume. I finished my Harry Potter reread last week so I'm sticking with summery fluff until I get the new book on Saturday.

"The Guy Not Taken" by Jennifer Weiner (she also wrote "Good in Bed" and "In Her Shoes". It's a collection of short stories...which means I can abandon it for a while and not get too lost while I read the new Harry Potter!

One hundred pages left to go in Middlesex, which I am finding fascinating, but I am eagerly awaiting that overnight shipment of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows on Saturday!

Around 65 pages left of Kite Runner. What a brutal book.

I just finished Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister, which I was not to thrilled about. Mildy interesting, but in general I was a little disappointed.

Just One More Thing (Stories From My Life) by Peter Falk. Loved it. Vibrant stories from my favorite man in a raincoat

Next up - Cell, Stephen King.

(I've been reading pieces of Historic Diplomacy for a while - it's a very detailed analysis of the intricate dealings between Sadat, Begin, Kissinger, Carter and a few other interesting characters invloved in the events leading up to the peace agreement between Israel and Egypt)

I'm about 50 pages into "Into the Wild" by Jon Krakauer. I have to read it for school, and I've found it quite interesting thus far.
