Ahh! Ahh!
Changing Planes, by Ursula LeGuin. It's entertaining, but not much else. I'm also in the middle of a few books that are never going to be finished, including Nickel Mountain by John Gardener (of "Grendel" fame) and "The Age of American Unreason", which is requires such intellectual stimulation that it took me 3 months to read 70 pages. Bummer, and I was learning such great things.
I also just read "Blankets" by Craig Thompson, which is a graphic novel (I don't know if that counts). But it was superbly drawn and written, definite recommendation to anyone (especially fans of Menonomena's "Friend and Foe" album cover).
