I've been reading quite a bit and haven't made time to post. But a couple of highlights:
In The Writing Class, Jincy Willett combines a whodunnit mystery with insights on writing and those who attempt it (some doing it well, others not so well). Her characters are so well drawn and fascinating, especially the protagonist who teaches the title class.
I've also been enjoying Jennifer Weiner's books. As I previously posted, chick lit seems to be the best thing for me right now, since I'm reading in short bursts with many distractions. Weiner's books feel like a step up from most chick lit, with interesting, unpredictable plots and well-developed characters. So far I've read Little Earthquakes, In Her Shoes, and Goodnight Nobody.

I also feel like Jennifer Weiner's books are one step up from your typical chick lit :) I enjoyed In Her Shoes and Good in Bed. Have yet to read Little Earthquakes though.
I think that Jennifer is definitely high grade chick lit. If you liked Good in Bed, try Certain Girls which takes place 13 years later when Joy is entering her teen years!
