I read The Goldfinch a while back. Not at all my usual fare. The plot progressed at a snail's pace, but I enjoyed every page of it. (The movie treatment was horribly shallow in comparison, but there's no way they could possibly convey the depth in two hours.)
About Goldfinch: Perhaps I've seen too many movies, but the "backers" look like the guys that will vouch for you to get the loan and break you knees in case you forgot to pay it back.
