Finished reading A gate at the stairs yesterday, and read Good bones by Margaret Atwood today. Might go for The piano teacher by Elfriede Jelinek now, but haven't decided. I really liked A gate at the stairs; I was a bit skeptical at first but then the protagonist, Tassie Keltjin , was like a mix between Lee Fiora (from Curtis Sittenfeld's Prep) and Blue van Meer (from Special topics in calamity physics by Marisha Pessl) while still having her own personality, so it was pretty great.
