Karen Russell - Swamplandia and/or St. Lucy's Home for Girls Raised by Wolves. I liked the short stories I read in the New Yorker and other SS collections in 2010.

Pnin by Vladimir Nabokov

Karen Sindayen I liked this one a lot better than Mr. Darcy broke my heart. I wasn't happy with the ending though.

Karen Sindayen Oh yes. I holed up in my room for a week reading this series. I think you may like it too. Though there is this fantastical post-apocalyptic element that may be a bit of a stretch for you.

Karen Sindayen I really wanted to like this book but the story telling was just clunky and un-interesting. Great collection of pictures though.

Karen Sindayen Re-read on a whim and fell in love with Middle-Earth all over again. There will likely be several re-readings before the movie is out in December.
