What a good thread! I'm currently stalled on "One Nation Under Sex". It's been incredibly interesting, and I *do* want to finish, but I kind of got distracted during the Harding administration and it's been weeks since I picked the book up again.
I'm also stuck halfway through "A Series of Unfortunate Events". I love the series so far, but I'm at Book 7 and it's really starting to make me sad. I should have heeded the Snicket Warning Label.
