In the Heart of the Sea -- I just finished this. It's a very exciting nonfiction account of the events that inspired Moby Dick.
The Sacred Fount -- Strange and majestic. I'm barely half-way through, and it's already outdone the two other Henry James novels I've read (Portrait of a Lady and Wings of the Dove -- both favourites). The protagonist is the most intricate fictional character I know of.
The Tenant of Wildfell Hall -- Meh. I'll probably abandon this.

Moby Dick was one of the most difficult novels I have ever read. Is that one any better? Also at the current time I am not reading anything. I have been too busy.

I love Moby Dick, but In the Heart of the Sea is more accessible and entertaining. I recommend it to all.
