Now, again based on your suggestions, I guess I'm going to grudgingly go back to Atlas Shrugged, although I sure hope it gets better this time around . . .

Actually, I can't think of a better time to read it. It is 20 degrees here in Virginia and I am enjoying snuggling up with a blanket and my dog in front of the fireplace.
I would also recommend "The World According to Garp', "The Hotel New Hampshire" both by Irving (I have "A Widow for One Year" in backlog.
