I enjoyed The Doomsday Book more than any book I've read in a while. When I finish A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving (which is looong) I'm reading Connie Willis's To Say Nothing of the Dog. I just read Three Men in a Boat (to Say Nothing of the Dog) by Jerome K. Jerome in preparation. It was published in 1889 and reminded me of both Mark Twain and P.G. Wodehouse.
