Books
Seeing as we have a thread dedicated to discussing movies, I think one devoted to books is very à propos.
So, what books have you read, whether it be recently or ages ago, that you really enjoyed? What books are you currently digging into? What books do you plan on reading?

I just finished Lolita. Could be the strangest book I have ever read, great though. Those Russians can sure write a book...Very disturbing books that I would be concerned if you could think of such an odd story line.

Oh geez, I hope you packed a lunch. I've actually tried to contain my list by including only my favorite work from each author/creator. In no particular order:
(Yes, fellow geeks, I know that Dune, The Lord of the Rings and The Dark Knight Returns aren't on here. That is indeed on purpose. Discuss. )

Recently I've read:
Manhunt - about the search and capture of John Wilkes Booth The Lonely Land - by Sigurd Olson Grant and Sherman I like hard SF. I particularly like Charles Sheffield's books. I'm an avid reader and I read a lot of non-fiction as well as fiction. I have a huge collection of books, there's just too many to name. There are certain books I will read over and over again.
