What book are you currently reading, or recommend?

Finished off The Alienist on vacation last week and then read The Angel of Darkness, the other Kreizler book by Caleb Carr. Just as good as The Alienist. Then The Italian Secretary, Carr's Sherlock Holmes novel. Eh, not as enjoyable as Carr's other books and not as good as the original Holmes stories.

Grabbed Bridge to Terabithia for old-times' sake. Good stuff. :sad2:

Jumping back into Lisey's Story by Stephen King after letting it gather dust for about 6 months. Just can't get into it. :smash:

Not a book but an online short story, "Coat" by Joe R. Lansdale.

When James saw the man in the streetlights, he hated him on sight because of the coat. It wasn?t fashionable. If the man had been unfashionable in all other ways he could have ignored it, but no, this was a man who should have known better. He was a man with a good shirt and slacks and fine tie, and the best shoes available, and yet, he wore a coat out of style and certainly one that did not make for a proper appearance. It was an odd coat of undetermined color and absolutely no substance. It had all the grace of a car wreck. It flopped in the winter wind at the lapels like bat wings flexing, caught up in back and whipped backwards like the tail of a swallow.
