Recommend a book for my plane ride!

Hi all:

Looking for something to read on the plane on Friday--I've got about 7 hours going and 6 hours coming back. Can you please recommend something with a few words about the book?

Thanks!

'Geek Love' by Katherine Dunn... it's about the definition of family and love in a carnival sideshow family. It's awesome and I've read it like 4 times.

'Till We Have Faces' by C.S. Lewis. It's a retelling of the Psyche and Eros myth. Read it if you're feeling pissy at destiny.

'Their Eyes Were Watching God' by Zora Neale Hurston. the loves of a woman's life during the 1930s in Florida. Awesome and timely since it makes you look at different kinds of love and it's your anniversary!

Cool, I'll take a look.

BTW: I've read Geek Love no less than 4 times too

We're like twins!!!

Also, if you liked the movie Fight Club check out Chuck Palahniuk's books (Fight Club, Survivor, Choke, Invisible Monsters, Diary, Lullaby). He's sick but completely engrossing!
