Had a good time with "Blood Meridian" by Cormac McCarthy. It takes some rifling through the dictionary (a Spanish-English one would probably help as well), but it has a great middle-of-the-desert hallucinatory vibe to it. I'm currently reading "Citizen Vince" by Jess Walter- considerably lighter, but a good easy read. Different genre- I really enjoyed "Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell" by Susanna Clarke. Give it a try if you're into more fantastical stuff. Looking at my bookshelf right now, two non-fictions jump out at me- "Team of Rivals" is great, although just about everybody's already read it at this point. If you haven't, it's good and long. "A Primate's Memoir" by Robert Sapolsky is hilarious and poignant and engaging. It's about baboons. Both my wife and my dad have been trying to get me to read "A Fine Balance" for a couple years now. I really should get to it. Or maybe you should get to it and report back to me, let me know if it's worth it. Supposed to be good.
