Northern Lights by Philip Pullman, which is definitely living up to its hype. I am trying to get it finished before the movie release but I can't see it happening, unfortunately. I also want to get it finished so I can start reading Atonement by Ian McEwan!

War and Peace.
Also, a book about Gladiators that I'm pretty sure is called Gladiators.

I just finished Showdown by Ted Dekker. Completely awesome, but a little weird at the same time. I'm about to start Saint. Same author, same series, but not directly related to the first book. Or so I've heard.

"Salem's Lot" is one of my favorites by King. I'm constantly amazed at how well he's able to balance so many characters...whole towns. And insanely jealous.

Swan Song By Robert McCammon. Awesome piece of work, most notably compared to Stephen King's: The Stand, which unfortunately for me, I have not read yet... I plan on reading it right after Swan Song though, and hope it's good, if not better.
