I adore Amy Tan. I was engrossed by SAVING FISH FROM DROWNING. Have you read any of her stuff? THE KITCHEN GOD'S WIFE, perhaps? (Had a bit of a book buying binge! Non-smoking rewards! Yes, I'm a lit. binge type!)
Reading anything absorbing, lately?

i've read joy luck club & the kitchen god's wife. both quite good. i encountered the chess chapter of jlc twice in middle school, as a short story - every time i'm at waverly place i think of waverly place jong.
if you're looking for engrossing, you must read 'the time traveller's wife.' 600 pages or so, and you'll wish there were twice as many. probably the perfect book for the immersion you're looking for.
other wonderful engrossing consuming captivating books: the sparrow (by mary doria russel - a sci-fi concept, but so well-written that you'll never notice - in book store's it's in with the regular fiction) moo (by jane smiley - a little fluffy, but wonderful - she takes about 15 storylines and braids them together seamlessly) the amazing adventures of kavalier and clay (michael chabon) the clan of the cave bear (by jean auel - a classic, as far as i'm concerned. but don't get into the books that follow - the mystery of the storyline's will draw you in, but the quality of the books, sadly, plummets.) the radiant way (by margaret drabble) and my roommate suggests extremely loud and incredibly close (jonathan safran foer - i haven't gotten to read it yet, but it sounds great).
i've also been getting into really interesting non-fiction recently - 'the history of the world in five glasses' and 'everything bad is good for you' are both really fun, interesting, and engrossing. they don't transport you like fiction, but they're really good, too.
hope that helps. (i'm dangerous with book recommendations - once i start i have trouble stopping.)

Thanks for the list! I agree re: some of your top picks. Fully intend to explore what I haven't read yet.
Glorious distraction. I live to read. It's terrible, but often I avoid the light of day for 4 or 5 days in my "cave" camped out with pounds of books, only to exit my house to acquire more reading material, DVD's, food, and well...the usual creature necessities.
Actually, it's terrible in a funny way. I always smoked outdoors & now I don't smoke & rarely go outdoors. Honestly, most days I haven't a clue what the weather is like.
Yup, I'm a "cavebear."
Kate.

i know what you mean - behold my sunday so far, which has included the couch, getting up for food, and getting up for.. well, to put gym clothes on, but have i moved yet?
music might be a good outdoor zone-out thing - i find walking without music just boring sometimes, but walking with a good cd on (or, i suppose you could do a book-on-tape), or just being outside w/ the headphones, is a similar immersion, but without needing to be indoors.
ok, back to tv and reading blogs...

Hi ya'll
Exercise: None, whoops!
Breakfast: 1/2 kaiser roll with 1 Tbsp of LF Peanut Butter
Snack: Granola Bar
Lunch: Tuna Sandwich (kaiser roll, mini can of tuna, 1 Tbsp of Ultra Low Fat Mayo).
Dinner: Chicken and mushrooms in teryaki sauce, asparagus, carrots and peas and serving of "Crunchy Skillet-Browned Garlic New Potatoes" from EFI (with regular potatoes, cut into slices).

Cals: over 2000 . Exercise: didn't get through weights and ball, only 1.5 rounds or half of what I should have done. Maybe I need vitamins. Baked some cookies and ate a ton of them! eek!
-------------------- IBS-A for 20 years with terrible bloating and gas. On the diet since April 2004. Remember this from Heather's information pages:
"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!
