I am currently reading Tolstoy's War and Peace, translated by Anthony Briggs. I have always wanted to read Tolstoy, and couldn't wait any longer. I've been trying to find this translation as an ebook for quite some time, but have had no luck. Maybe after this I'll try a recent translation of Dostoevsky.
I am also in the middle of C.S. Forester's Hornblower novels. I have been going back and forth reading Forester, then something else, then Forester again. I really like this series, and I probably will start Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Martian series next.
I also am a big history buff, and read non-fiction works about the Revolutionary War and the US Civil War quite a bit. After I finish my classic Russian novel fix, I'll go back to reading some of that again.
