I quite liked Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

Just finished 'when nothing else matters' which was a look into Michael Jordan's final 2 years playing basketball with the Washington Wizards. Great book if you are a fan of the game and grew up watching Mike on the hardcourt.

Just started reading 'The Lost Symbol' by Dan Brown. So far, so good.

Uh, the programming guide on the DVR.

Usually, the WSJ, FT and various financial related stuff online.

Interesting tid-bit: Eric Maria's real last name was Kramer, he reversed it to get Remarque!

The Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer - It is a memoir of a soldier in the German army during WWII. When you get past the fact of which side he is on, it is a really gripping account.

Finished Cross Country by Patterson. Started Time Quake by Vonnegut, but wasn't really in the mood for it so moved on to Naming of the Dead by Ian Rankin.
