Loved The Help, Snow Flower and the Secret Fan and The Last Report on the Miracles at Little No Horse.
I also am a history buff and love classical literature, so I tend to alternate among recent fiction, non-fiction and classics. Most recent classical re-reads-- both among my favorites-- were East of Eden by Steinbeck and Tale of Two Cities by Dickens. Just started reading, Ratification (non-fiction) by Pauline Maier. My book club just read, My First Two Women, an excellent short story by Nadine Gordimar.
