Almost halfway through Voices from Chernobyl. Sadness that will make your stomach hurt in this one.

This is definitely on my reading list. I'm half-way through Bad Blood currently.

Bad Blood was a good read, but the story really POed me.

Finished John le Carre's The Constant Gardner, one of the best stories so far.
I really enjoy his plots, writing style and characters. Don't always agree with his endings.

Onward to the next le Carre on my list, starting today:

Finished this book ... a tremendous story.

Just reading 'The Little Drummer Girl' that begins with the bombing of the Israeli labor attaché's house in Bad Godesberg. Impressive!

On to the next le Carre on my list, same as @biosailor
Published in 1983, his first book set in the Middle East.
Interesting comments already in the Foreword and Introduction!

The idiot by Dostoevsky. I am enjoying it quite a bit, I am nearly done. I'm 30 years old, and I read my first of his back in 2011, Crime and Punishment. I've also read Brothers Karamazov. I used to find reading him to be difficult to fully understand, but I feel I am understanding it much better these days. I guess you really do get smarter in some ways with age.
