Currently reading Under the Dome by Stephen King which I've had for about half a year. It's become my bathroom book so I should finally finish it eventually :)
I've got Necrophenia by Robert Rankin and Reaper Man on my nightstand at the moment.

Was watching the tellybox last night, and someone mentioned Lady Chatterley's Lover.

Since I've never read it, I immediately downloaded it onto my Kindle, to see what all the fuss is about.

79p!
