What are you reading right now?

I've been reading some Russian classics lately (Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy...) 'cause I wanted to know what's the fuss about. Right now I'm reading War and Peace but I haven't gotten very far with it 'cause my copy is in English and I read a whole lot faster in Finnish. Can't say I can recommend these to anyone, unless you're a masochist like me who enjoys to be bored out of their right minds. They're not bad, but they're quite heavy. For future reference: I've read the Bible from cover to cover, so I can deal with boredom quite well. And no, I'm not religious. Also, normally I read less "serious" books.
