I don't remember where I read about The Reluctant Fundamentalist, but it sounds quite interesting: a Pakistani's experience living in post-9/11 New York. It was shortlisted for The Man Booker Prize in 2007. At 184 pages I'm thinking I will finish it in a few hours. Until then happy reading!
Well done on finishing Slaughterhouse. Your lunch looks great and just made me realize how hungry I am. Off to make some food, then get back to reading.

Your fuel looks delicious! And didn't realize Reluctant Fundamentalist would be a quick one--maybe I'll pick it up later today.
