After putting it off for months I am reading Hannibal by Thomas Harris. I already know what happens storyline wise and so I braced myself for it being fucking awful and... it's actually kind of amazing.
I forgot how absorbing and unique Harris's writing is.
Loki:
I am not sure if this fits here, but I just reread a plot summary of Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontė on Wikipedia. I had read the books a few years ago.
I just realized that there is no way I'd read it again.

She's not an Author I've read before but got intrigued by the book. Will look at getting more of her work after I finish this one.

I totally fell in love with the Republic Commando series of her, which I like better than the original Star Wars movies (even the older ones), so I was devastated when the last book of the series was cancelled. George Lucas decided that the "Clone Wars" animated series would bring in more cash, and as the storylines were a little bit conflicting he declared the novel series (which had started long before "Clone Wars") as out of canon. Karen Traviss then decided not to write the last book, which really bummed out her fans.
If you don't mind having an open end I would still recommend these books though. The first three novels don't end with such a big cliffhanger, and are absolutely fantastic. It's basically the clone wars of the perspective of some rather ordinary foot soldiers (read clone "special forces"), than of the position of these omnipotent Jedi. Contains humor, drama and romance.
But currently I'm reading through Terry Pratchett's novels once again. I'm reading them not in chronological order, but following the story lines. Right now I'm in "Thud!" of the City Watch story line. Afterwards I'll skip right to the latest novel "Snuff".
