Just started Richard Russo's new book That Old Cape Magic.

He is so brilliant.

Just finished Philip K. Dick's VALIS. Okay, interesting in a lot of ways, but my patience with depictions of religious quests gets very limited very quickly, especially with silly religious quests, like the one in this novel. I liked the identity games Dick was playing with the narrator, though.

Just started Pynchon's INHERENT VICE, good fun so far. I was looking forward to the new E.L. Doctorow, but it didn't get the best review in the Times today, not that that means anything...

OK, this isn't the thread I was searching for but for all intents and purposes it works. Has anyone read Third Twin by Ken Follet? I just downloaded it from the e-library.
KFTC!!!!!

I just finished A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara. It is a long book and deals with some pretty difficult subject matter, but I would HIGHLY recommend it. Easily the best book I read this year.
