I am currently on a Dumas kick. Strangely enough I had never read The three Musketeers.

I recently reread C.S. Forrester's Hornblowers series, always a good read.

I'm rereading the Wheel of Time.
I just finished Slaughterhouse 5 though, and would recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it yet.

Just finished A Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich, but before I dive into The Gulag Archipelago I'm going through Lovecraft's entire bibliography chronologically.

Slaughterhouse Five is great. I read it for my online fantasy lit class.
