I've been behind again in my reading due the normal craziness of the holidays. I just finished Winter of the World by Ken Follett. This is book two in a trilogy. I love when history mixes with fiction, and this series is definitely the best thing I have read in a long time. The storyline keeps the reader infectiously engaged with the plight of the characters and how they survive during trying times. I can't get enough, and I am ready for book three to be out. Maybe in 2014? Everyone should check this trilogy out...and don't be alarmed by the 900+ pages. They will fly by before you know it.
