[Denise]

Listening to Tipping the Velvet

[Kris]

Just starting Uncle Petros and Goldbach's Conjecture: A Novel of Mathematical Obsession.

[Duygu]

Just started Fear of Flying. Hopefully it is going to get better because as of this moment I feel like I am in the mind of an ADD sex maniac woman.

I don't have that on my 2010 list, is it on another list?

The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle should be on the 2010 List; it was on the 2006 List & has not been removed in any of the subsequent editions, as far as I know.

Stick with it, it's supposed to be a kind of a journey through her fears, & addictions. I loved it....

[Lisa]

I just started both Madam Bovary & Moll Flanders. I'm reading the foreward of Madam Bovary first, to get a feel for the story, but finding Moll Flanders a bit on the heavy side so far. Maybe it's the old English language that's the hang up, but she's on her second husband & third child at the age of about 23 I think...

You are right :) I didn't look at the books with "the" in front of them. Thanks.

Thanks Lisa, hopefully it will pick up!

[Utelne]

I just start reading HEART of DARKNESS by Joseph Conrad because it seems to me, after a fast overview,a melting pot of London,for adventure, Hemingway, for the communication of itself to world and itself to others (and itself to itself also),a touch of Rimbaud with his

[Wendy]

Just started Moby-Dick on audio...how have I never gotten around to this one yet? I'm only an hour into it, and I started inventing chores (folding clothes etc) just so I could keep listening to it. I hope I don't tire of it before all 24 hours are up!

[Danyellemastro]

Love in a cold climate - felt like something light after Trainspotting.

[Elizabeth (Alaska)]

The Beautiful Mrs. Seidenman, lovely already.

[Anne]

Elizabeth, I'm so glad that you like this one. I loved it and don't know many people who have read it.

Funny you should say that. It was mis-shelved at the library yesterday and I had to ask for help in locating it. When I told the librarian what I was looking for, she smiled, and said, "we'll find it, it's one of my favorites."

[Kelly]

I just started and finished the Elegance of the Hedgehog. I was completely enthralled by it.

That's nice to here!

[Jo]

North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell - so far so good!

[Mikela]

I'm a little over halfway through Get Shorty and have to say I'm disappointed so far. I really expected more after reading La Brava.

[Dina]

Foe by J.M. Coetzee

[Kris]

I just started A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry - loving it so far.

[Rachel (Sfogs)]

It's really good~!

Anything by Gaskell is worth the read. :)

[Kris]

I just started The Crying of Lot 49. Realized the dangers of reading Pynchon on the bus - I almost missed my stop.

[Elizabeth (Alaska)]

Next up for me is Coetzee's Disgrace. One paragraph and I'm already drawn in.

[Deanne]

Started Humboldt's gift by Bellow yesterday, have a whole week off work.

[Danyellemastro]

The Light of Day by Graham Swift, not sure this writing style is for me but had heard so many great things about Waterland that I thought I would give this a go. Should go relatively quickly though.

[Grada (BoekenTrol)]

I'm currently reading (and slowly making progress in) The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga.

[~Calyre~]

Starting Agnes Grey

[Kris]

I'm 125 pages into The Recognitions. Definitely into it--was laughing on the bus when reading it last night.

[Deanne]

Reading Marius the Epicurean by Pater and Dispatches by Herr, very different books. Dispatches is interesting to me as it's about the Vietnam war, something I'm not familliar with as I'm British.

this is one of those books whose title is literally demonstrated in the work.

[Tomchicago]

Just began "Old Goriot" by Balzac. I thought I'd have trouble with just who was who, but it is working itself out and I'm enjoying it.

[Dina]

I just strated The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton. For now I like it.

[Elizabeth (Alaska)]

This one is near the top of my all time favorites. I hope you like it all the way to the end and beyond.

Hope you love it - I thought it was great.

[Maryellen]

Currently reading In The Forest by Edna O'Brien- interesting as it is based on a true crime in Ireland.

[Grada (BoekenTrol)]

I have just started Animal Farm by George Orwell

[Donna]

Currently reading The Midwich Cuckoos by John Wyndham - liking it a lot so far!

[Deanne]

Reading World's End by T.C.Boyle, enjoying the interweaving of the famillies and time lines, have to admit prefer the sections dealing with the late 17th century.

[Danyellemastro]

The Outsider by Albert Camus. Here's hoping its worth the rave reviews.

[Kris]

I'm still reading and loving The Recognitions, but I am also reading The Story of Lucy Gault: A Novel by William Trevor. Gorgeous writing.

[Bucket]

Starting Neuromancer by William Gibson today.

[Kris]

I am reading Fugitive Piecesby Anne Michaels. I could tell right away she is a poet. It's beautifully written. I definitely want to read more by her.

I am still reading The Recognitions - I am hoping to get a lot of reading done this weekend on that.

[Rachael]

I've just begun A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce. As it stands, I'm really liking it, despite the endless references to 19th century Irish politics that I really don't get. Maybe I should have read a history book first?

[Corina]

I just started She Came to Stay by Simone de Beauvoir. I`m hoping I`ll like it.

[Eli]

I am currently reading Notes from Underground and Candide. So far I am enjoying both.

[Kristine]

Just started The Driver's Seat, the premise sounds good.
