Present Fiction:
Stephen King: The Talisman (a bit slow, still slow from where I am now).
Present Non-Fiction:
The Ra Material: The Law of One Series. Most Awesome Christmas Present ever. (Recommended to those interested in the Occult, Metaphysics, Meditation, Healing, Spirituality, Channeling, Science, and More)

I've heard that Joe Abercrombie trilogy is good. Please give us a post on what you think once you've read the first book.
EDIT:
for the holiday I received:
Paul Auster- Leviathan and In the Country of Last Things (sorry Mike, no Moon Palace
)
Charles Stross- Singularity Sky
Neal Stephenson- Anathem
R. Scott Bakker- Neuropath
non-fiction:
Walter Benn Michaels- The Shape of the Signifier
Hubert Dreyfus- What Computers Still Can't Do

Will do, don't hold your breath though. 
It's long, and there are a few I want to get to before that one.

Bought and began reading House of Leaves today. You can't even imagine my horror when Tom Navidson was introduced as being from my hometown. I almost just had a heart attack. I imagined it like the book had inputted my hometown into a blank left by the author (or authors?!).
This is pretty fucked up stuff. I like.

on a related note, my lit theory professor loved my House of Leaves paper. This is what he said in a facebook message to me:
Einherjar, if you or anybody else is interested in reading it, lemme know and I'll email it to you

I am the worm
Began reading a collection of previously unreleased Bukowski stuff called Portions From a Wine Stained Notebook a few days ago. A must have for Bukowski fanatics.

Send it my way! I loved those academic articles that you sent me on it.

ALLY TO GOOD, NIGHTMARE TO YOU
I just got The Road today. I thought I would give it a bit higher priority on my mental list of books to read now that the film is out.
So the book came with a sticker on the cover that says "NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE." Why the hell would I want a fucking sticker on the cover? I could remove it, but it'd probably leave some sticky shit that I can't get rid of. How annoying.
I haven't read it yet. I glimpsed through the first pages a bit and I think I like his writing style already, though.

Just read in Latin the play "Medea" by Seneca, originally by Euripides. One of the darkest, most heart-wrenching examples of ancient theatre you can find. I recommend it to you drama nerds.
