Default What are you reading right now?

(inspired by a previous thread about books)

When you're curling up in bed with a good book, what are you currently reading? I just started - Just Kids by Patti Smith. Its her memoirs of her early years with photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. I can't put this book down! Its an amazing blunt look into the lives of 2 incredibly talented people. And there's lots of cool pictures in it too.

Well, I'm not going to post the cover because I'm too lazy.
But I just finished reading "The Oedipus Cycle" by Sophocles, and now I am reading "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley for the third or fourth time.
Next I am going to read "1984" again, and who knows after that...
