    These early books of McEwans' really are quite disturbing!

    The 158-pound marriage by John Irving.

    It's better so far than The Water Method man...but I wonder what his novels would have been like if he went to other places than Austria, and wrestling wasn't his only sport?

    The Stand by Stephen King

    About 300 pages in, about 3 million to go :)

    I like it thus far, but I do wish he would get on with the plot a bit :)

    Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts.

    Not bad but very long winded, could easily cut out a couple of hundred pages.

    933 pages is a lot of book!!
