Due to Chapters coupons that required several large purchases, finding cheap used books at Goodwill, and receiving gifts, I have many new books on my shelf. (And these days I am much more likely to actually read the new books I get than I used to be, instead of letting them sit unattended forever.) Here's some of what I plan to be reading in the near future:
1. At Home in Mitford by Jan Karon a
2. The Reader by Bernhard Schlink a
3. Anthem by Ayn Rand a
4. Dune by Frank Herbert a
5. Dune Messiah by Frank Herbert a
6. Essays by George Orwell a
7. Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert a
8. Far From the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy
9. How Proust Can Change Your Life by Alain de Botton a
10. Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov
11. The Piano Man's Daughter by Timothy Findley a
12. The Birth House by Ami McKay a
13. Gourmet Rhapsody by Muriel Barbery a
14. Candide by Voltaire a
15. The Toss of a Lemon by Padma Viswanathana
Do any of these interest you guys? Would you care to join me?

also, amanda, one of your goals was to read all of jane austen's works. when you get to "northanger abbey," please let me know! it's the only one i haven't read, and i bought it at the same time as "the reader."
