The Withces Of Eastwich by John Updike - I like Updike's style a lot but the story so far is a little thin. I'm about a third of the way through and I really just want to finish it so I can move on to something else, probably Murakami's The Wind Up Bird Chronicle which I bought a few days ago.

I'm also going through Julia Childs' Mastering The Art Of French Cooking, another book I picked up on a whim, mostly just to pick up tips and improve my cooking skills.

And Ben Goldacre's Bad Science is my current "dip in and out" book. It's basically extended versions of his Guardian column, in which he takes on abuses of science, the scienctific process and statistics. It's well worth reading.
