My reading list for the plane to and from Prague

Hello from above the Atlantic Ocean! Guess what time it is in Prague?



Here's what I'm reading on the plane, in order of preference:
I can't wait to read The Romantics by Galt Niederhoffer. The Romantics [I am intrigued by the story of college buddies reuniting for a wedding, plus I want to read the book before the movie comes out this fall.]
Noli me Tangere by Jose Rizal (translated by Soledad Locsin)  Noli Me Tangere (Touch Me Not) [This was a pivotal book for my Mom when she lived in the Philippines. She suggested the family read it since my middle sister is going to live in the Philippines for two months.]

The Butcher and the Vegetarian: One Woman's Romp Through a World of Men, Meat, and Moral Crisis by Tara Austen Weaver The Butcher and the Vegetarian: One Woman's Romp Through a World of Men, Meat, and Moral Crisis[This was suggested to me after reading, Cleaving, by Julie Powell. Julie & Julia365 Days, 524 Recipes, 1 Tiny Apartment Kitchen I loved Julie & Julia but I do NOT recommend reading her sophomore effort. I was disturbed by reading about her infidelities.] 
The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down by Anne Fadiman The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down [A coworker recommended this book.]
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time by Mark Haddon The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time[I love the cover of this book and apparently it has received rave reviews.]

Any other suggestions?

Today and for the next 9 days, I'll be wandering these romantic cobblestone streets!!!
