Today, I finished reading "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" which is Neil Gaimans new novel.
I loved it, absolutely couldn't put it down - and was so sorry it ended. Far too short
Therefore, I am making this thread to say READ THIS BOOK - and give me more book suggestions. My shelf cannot be full enough hehe

I can already see amazon getting a large order from me :p

Henri Barbusse, Le Feu (translated in English as Under Fire, I think)
Kim Stanley Robinson, The Years of Rice and Salt
Many, many more scattered through my apartment (I often read a dozen books at a given moment), but those two are just absolutely awesome.
The first is a diary of a squadron during WWI (specifically the year 1915), the second an uchronia : what would the world have been like if the Black Plague killed 99% of european population instead of a third ?
