The Votes Are In!

We've polled all the major contributors to the site and asked him what he thought of the books he read this year. Responses were varied and anemic and they come to you free of charge, in no particular order:

The Name of the Rose - Poirot meets the "Dumb Ox," they chat of Virtue Ethics and murder most foul.

Shogun - So what if the British were not as nautically naughty as the Dutch during the 17th Century? Let's face it; carving people up with swords is still awesome.

The Sound and the Fury - I discerned this medium obfuscating in the extreme, obstreperous in the manner of its dissertation, devoid of the lucidity prevalent in commensurate literature, and downright Awesome!!!! Who-hoo-hoo, go team. It took roughly no longer than approximately twenty-five fortnights and numerous secondary readings for the aforementioned reader to consummate this behemoth.

The Road Less Traveled - Something about psychology or some such nonsense about how to like, live a better life. I totally don't need this, like, I'm so hot already.

The Boglehead's Guide to Investing
- Remember learning to sew, cook, and take care of a boiled egg whose yolky persona will not be too unlike that of your first born son? If only we had gotten more of these practical life lessons in high school. Perhaps we could have a day where everyone dresses like a bum to simulate retirement on future pensions and social security.
