I love Arugula, so that is a title on my list (which I will probably never get to because I keep cheating and picking up other interesting books which are not on my list...)

I have finished the Great Mortality, the book about the black plague. It was indeed an excellent book. I'm still marveling at how the author managed to make an amazing amount of facts about the middle ages read like a thriller. The Great Mortality is that truly rare book of exceptional scholarship that reads like the Da Vinci Code. :-) The subject matter is a bit depressing, but that's probably the book's only downside.
