The Immediate Book Meme, Plus One

From DarwinCatholic, a fun book meme:

There are plenty of memes that want to know all about your book history and your all-time greats and your grand ambitions, but let's focus on something more revealing: the books you're actually reading now, or just read, or are about to read. Let's call it The Immediate Book Meme.

1. What book are you reading now?
No particular book; various and sundry articles and books on dystopia.

2. What book did you just finish?
Allegiant by Veronica Roth; not sure the series was worth the effort or the $$...

3. What do you plan to read next?
I tend not to plan; it doesn't work out well.

4. What book do you keep meaning to finish?
The Fiery Cross by Diana Gabaldon (the reread that just. isn't. happening.) 
The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland by Catherynne M. Valente 
Little House on the Prairie - I was reading it to my girls, and we just can't seem to read the last two chapters!!

5. What book do you keep meaning to start?
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett

6. What is your current reading trend?
Fantasy and YA dystopia

And, to add one of my own...

7. What is your favorite thing that you've read recently?
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern 
The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker
