I started High Fidelity by Nick Hornby and I enjoy it so far. I love that one. Usually men are like (LOL) but this book kind of demystifies their thought process. The movie's pretty good, too.

I nearly felt asleep during the movie Atonement, but maybe the book's allright. The bell jar - Sylvia Plath

I started reading Don't Call Me Ishmael by Michael Gerard Bauer with the pupils who I am tutoring. It is amazing and very funny.

I loved that one! I'm reading Suite Francaise by Irene Nemirovsky. It's a real pageturner, so I'm already halfway into it. (May also have something to do with the heavy delay at Frankfurt Airport yesterday)
