I haven't been reading that much recently, but I think one that I really enjoyed was a book I read a couple of months ago, in Tamil - S. Ramakrishnan's 'Chekhovin meedu pani peygiradu'/'snow falls on Chekhov' - a collection of very lucid essays on great writers, esp the Russian ones.
Head over heels in to YA and picture books these days :) You would have heard me mention these books at ST as well.
YA: Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine. Easy read. Appropriate for 12 year old children.
Picture book: Princess Knight by Cornelia Funke. Ages 4 - 8. Finally read it yesterday. Awesome.
As an experiment started reading Tintin with the girls. The older one read ahead of me, the younger one spent like half day in each picture and after three pages, my mouth was hurting from all the talking :)
