What Do You Want to Read Next?

I hope I do. By the way I don't know if you still use livejournal, but I am collecting notes on Sons and Lovers there. Making some notes as I read.
 
I've had a craving to reread some of Anne Rice's works. That and Neverwhere, although Rice sounds more appealing right now.
 
Ugh, with school, the only thing I can read next is whatever I'm assigned.
But during my short break, I started Anne Rice's Exit to Eden which was okay. I'd really like to finish that.

Also, Lenny recommended The Marketplace series by Laura Antoniou. Put it at the top of my Amazon wishlist.
 
The Time It Never Rained by Elmer Kelton
The Centaur by John Updike
To Tame A Land by Louis L'Amour
Dreams of My Russian Summers by Andrei Makine
A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
Sons And Lovers by D.H. Lawrence

I've been looking forward to this book since the title was suggested in the BOTM thread.

Suggestions like this are one the reasons I love visiting this forum.
 
My next ten ( not counting the one I am currently reading) will probably include:

The Jungle--Upton Sincalir
West With the Vikings--Edison Marshall
At Play in the Fields of the Lord--Peter Matthiesson
Darkness at Noon-Arthur Koestler
Notes From the Underground--Fyodor Dostoevsky
Tobacco--Iain Gately
Beloved--Tony Morrison
Catch-22--Joseph Keller
 
I'll probably finish Helen Garner's The Spare Room, and fit in Florian Zeller's Julien Parme before the Booker longlist gets announced on Tuesday. Then it's straight into all thirteen titles before the shortlist gets announced six weeks later.

The Heart Shaped Box (which I just bought today) by Joe Hill.

I have read "Heart Shaped Box" recently and found it pretty interesting. I also respect the fact that he is Stephen King's son but doesn't use his father's famous name - that's not to say it hasn't helped him along the way!
 
So many books, so little time. I would like to read Les Miserables (unabridged) and The Count of Monte Cristo (unabridged), but there are so many that I want to read that I probably couldn't list them all here. And my list would change from time to time.
 
For some time I have been keen to revisit the classics...with a view to begin with John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath.
 
I grabbed a handful of titles from the "1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die" list from my local library and think that I will choose "Thursbitch" by Alan Garner as my next read.

Anyone read this and think I should or shouldn't??
