I so enjoyed Cold Mountain--the film, too! I'm reading recipes, emails, newspapers, Abundance by Sena Jeter Naslund, blogs, my manuscript (revisions & edits!), the gospel of Mark, website content for Al Huss Auto.
I love this question!
I am reading The Forsyte Sage and enjoying it immensely. It is quite funny. And everyday I read a little more of Leaves of Grass; I've wanted to read it for years and finally borrowed a copy from my daughter. I'm almost caught up on my New Yorkers, and I have a copy of Thus Spoke Zarathustra on my living room chair, but I've only read part of the introduction.

At home I'm reading "To Die Like a Man", which is a book a friend of ours wrote. Not too far into it yet, just started. At work I keep "My Sister, My Love" by Joyce Carol Oates, in my desk for those rare slow moments at the end of the day or when I don't have grading to do on my lunch hour.
I received several books & graphic novels for Christmas, but I am currently working through the Chronicles Of Amber by Roger Zelazny, a series I loved as a teenager, and am still enjoying a great deal.
