Just finished Louis Bayard's The Black Tower on the long ride back from Connecticut to Illinois - what a great book! I don't normally read in the car, but in this case I couldn't resist.

Nope! That was high on my list. Except that it's been derailed by Emma Darwin's A Secret Alchemy, which just arrived today.
