walter mosley is worth reading, even if bill clinton likes him. Devil in a Blue Dress is an amazing book, about a black ex G.I in the late 40s in LA who gets hired to work as a private eye for a rich white dude. really great book.

currently jumping between 2 books myself :\ one would be Steven Kings- Salems Lot (no guesses what that ones about :s) and Neil Gaimans "The Sandman" series...not so much a book but a graphic novel, but it is still superb

oh my workmate was reading that but left before she had finished it, she said it was good up till the point she had got to. Is the whole book any good? worth a read? (hmm, will have to wait till you have finished before you can comment properly, or has anyone else read it?)
