Per Shalizi's fantastic post, I'm reading Red Plenty. It's so far pretty good - if I had to compare it, I'd compare it to Dos Passos's USA, Kim Stanley Robinson's Red Mars books, and Carter Schulz's Radiance (which incidentally I recommend to LWers with literary bents).
This is the monthly thread for posting media of various types that you've found that you enjoy. I find that reading the sequences makes me less likely to enjoy some entertainment media that is otherwise quite popular, and finding media recommended by LWers is a good way to mitigate this. Post what you're reading, listening to, watching, and your opinion of it. Post recommendations to blogs. Post whatever media you feel like discussing! To see previous recommendations, check out the older threads.
