August is a wicked month, a novel. by Edna O'BrienGoing to start early while I wait for my other library books to come in.
La Maison de Claudine: Claudine's House by Colette. My old library copy is titled "My Mother's House" and "Sido". I previously read her Claudine at School (not a list book).

I have the first volume in Japanese, have yet to read it.
Started Metamorfoses.
Just started The Book of Daniel by E. L. Doctorow. This will be my 4th of his but of the prior three only Ragtime was a list book.

Cool- I read half of that recently, then took a break from it, but am going to read the 2nd half very soon. It's interesting what a very smart depressed writer comes up with.

I did enjoy it, but you definitely need to read something lighter after that one.
The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test by Tom Wolfe (started a few days ago) andCocaine Nights by J.G. Ballard
