Trust me, the death note series gets really good as you progress more.
I read all of it and it got worse as it progressed. It kept dragging on.
Why do so many people insist of READING Death Note? The anime was amazing.. at least until ep 25, then it dragged on for about 7 episodes, and then the last 5 got back on track with terms of awesome.

I find that the manga is far better. Plus the ending is different in the manga then in the anime.
Was ready to read The Trial by Kafka, but I was bored shoppin' with the missus (with no book), so I picked up Underground by Murakami. The non-fiction one about the gas attacks. So far pretty good.

Almost done Kafka on the Shore.
I loved that book. Oedipus Rex meets Japan!
I just bought and started "I hope they serve beer in hell" by Tucker Max.
I saw it in the bookstore today, read the back cover, bought it and havn't really put it down yet. I love it

Underground was really good.
Now it's onto The Trial finally. I've read halfway and stopped about 5 years ago (when I was about 20).

Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. I didn't want to read it, but my English class requires I do by sometime in March. Probably I will knock it out this weekend.
Snow Angels by Stewart O'Nan
Tale of Two Cities was AWESOME. Sydney Carton was the most badass (realistic) protagonist ever.

The first Golden Compass book. Never bothered reading it until now.
How is that? It's been on my "to read" list for about a year now...
It's really good. The movie, as books-made-movies usually are, doesn't do the book justice. I love how the main character is a classless little gutter-snipe whose forced to become a heroine. I just finished it last night, and wow, did they cut the ending short in the movie. Some serious sh*t happens at the end of the first book.
Anyway, I highly recommend it. Good solid story.
