I haven't been posting in this thread like I used to.
Anyway, I'm currently reading
The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson.
It is a literary non-fiction novel that spans the years surrounding the building of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, also known as The "World's Columbian Exposition", which was designed to commemorate the landing of Columbus in America.
Quote:
Bringing Chicago circa 1893 to vivid life, this spell-binding novel intertwines the true tale of two men; Daniel Burnham, the brilliant architect behind the legendary 1893 World's Fair. And H.H. Holmes, the cunning serial killer who used the fair to lure his victims to their death.

Very fascinating and engrossing so far. And I like how the book is written and presented in a novelistic style.
