This Town Will Never Let Us Go.
It probably isn't, but I love it so much that I don't care.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Anathem, no question for me.
Though Cloud Atlas is giving it a run for its money, in a very untraditional way.
I haven't read Antathm, but Cryptonomicon is definitely on my list so I'll have to check it out.
Anathem and Cloud Atlas are both fantastic indeed.
I need to re-read Anathem. Despite my general disgruntledness with books that have their own glossary, and despite the fact that the ending(s) made my head spin, it was excellent.
I just finished and loved Cloud Atlas but would never think of it as being sci-fi. It is really good and worth reading though.
but would never think of it as being sci-fi.
Most of it doesn't read like SF, but OTOH, half of it takes place in 2 future time periods, one of which is explicitly SFish (enslaved human clones etc) and the other of which is the post-apocalyptic remains of the other.
Yeah, it makes sense, Jessica, I just wouldn't have thought to classify it as sci-fi. Of course it's totally also historical fiction and contemporary too. Man, I loved that book. I just started his Black Swan Green last night. It's very stressful!
New Skulduggery Pleasant book: I has it!!!
Maybe I'll wait until the trip this weekend to read it.
Okay, that was a big fat lie. I'll probably be up WAY too late tonight reading it.
Oh I'm jealous... mine hasn't arrived yet which means that my brother said he mailed it but in fact probably forgot to go to post office on base before the holiday (they stick to US holidays on base) - man, siblings - you just can't trust 'em.
