Just this past week I finished The Witching Hour by Anne Rice
and The Hill Road by Patrick O'Keeffe
Not sure what I'm starting next. I've narrowed it down to two: either Bram Stoker's Dracula
or The Company Of Strangers by Robert Wilson

Just finished:
Horatio Hornblower - Beat to Quarters, by C.S. Forester if you can't tell.
Will be finishing this one this week:
by Chuck Palahniuk, which is the worst book I can remember reading. Every chapter makes me want to stop, but I just can't bring myself too do it. Of the 20 chapters I've read, 2 of the short stories have been good, the rest are crap... and the tying narrative is beyond bad.
About 50 pages into:

Finished up Will Christopher Baer's Hell's Half Acre last night and getting ready to start Neil Gaiman's Anansi Boys. Also reading Widow burning in India for a paper in Anthropology this weekend.

Almost done with it, and it is abit better than Crossroads of Twilight. But I still don't think RJ will ever finish this series (although KoD does make the final battle more imminent than ever, still, there are just too many loose ends to tie up, not to mention, he introduced a few new ones).

Edit: I just checked and yes, it is the same offered stated on their website. I'd definitely do this if I hadn't already read all of their titles.
