11. The Land of Laughs, Jonathan Carroll. "Americana and horror", the blurb on the back said. And that's pretty much spot-on, with a motif of masks and puppetry. The writing was good, the thread of the novel wove through detail and characters both mundane and bizarre, between an eccentric sort of pleasant and something much more sinister and strange.

12. The Lives of Christopher Chant, Diana Wynne Jones. Lighter reading but not quite fluff; almost a children's book but not quite, or perhaps a very good children's book.

Only two more books left from the stack that jencallisto brought me. :)
