I dunno, I seem to read a lot of sci fi and alternative history. The last few books I've read (not counting baby-related things) were Anathem, which was amazing; the Scott Pilgrim books; the first book in the Dresden Files series, which was kinda trashy but fun; and the Neverending Story, for nostalgia value. :-)

I ended up checking out the latest Terry Pratchett and a book fo short stories by Haruki Murakami.
