I'm just nosy, but I'd be interested in knowing what my fellow writers are reading and what they think of it.
I am no longer reading John Irving's A Prayer for Owen Meany, despite people whose tastes seem similar to mine insisting they love this book, that it's in their all-time top ten, that it moved them, that it changed them. I've started it twice and stalled out less than a quarter of the way in both times.
I've set Tours of the Black Clock by Steve Erickson next to the chair I like to read in, but I haven't even cracked it open yet.
Maryn, regretting that the room with the fireplace doesn't have adequate light for reading
