Anyone read any decent books lately? Drifting from my usual sci-fi/fantasy kick, I've just read a really good book named 'A Prayer for Owen Meany', by John Irving. It was pretty long, but worthwhile. It's a good read.

P.S. Reading Justin Timberlake lyrics doesn't count as reading.

Noting wrong with that.
Oh, and read "A Heartbreaking Work Of Staggering Genius" by dave Eggars. It's seriously odd - keeps changing format and has many appendices - and long, but it's SO worth it. Read the introduction and appendices too. It's very funny and equally sad.

I'm reading Catch-22 at the moment, and I love it. I'm glad it wasn't a set text this year or it would have killed some of my enjoyment of it.

You said this was a geekish thread, so I have a geekish book:
Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom by Cory Doctorow
Its sci-fi, but not hardcore, more like William Gibson or Neal Stephenson. Even if you don't like the genre, though, its an entertaining read.
I don't know anything about anime, so I can't reccomend anything there.
