Haven't laughed out loud reading a book in quite a while.

Finished reading The Girl Who Played with Fire. This keeps some of the elements of the previous book of the Millenium series while adding on several elements that makes this one different from its predecessor.

Now reading this:

Yeah. It got a hardcover reprint. You can get it for less than $17 on Amazon now.

I'm halfway through this now and enjoying it quite a bit.

Just finished this. I thought it was just as good, if not better, than the first book. However, i've been following his blog for a long time and he recycled a lot of the material, which was really disappointing.

I finished it yesterday, and thought that it was interesting. I think that a few of the topics were covered by Malcolm Gladwell in previous books, but for the most part it was an interesting read. There's been a lot of controversy about the global warming chapter, so there is some additional reading if you want to get further into that.

I don't think there's a lot of controversy. The book was never meant to be taken seriously. It even says so in the introduction (same goes for the first book). It's just for fun ;P

I think that the authors and critics are taking it very seriously, especially since there seems to be some misquotes and mispresentations. Here's just a few sites about some of the discrepancies:

Why Everything in Superfreakonomics About Global Warming Is Wrong
Correspondence on Global Warming and Superfreakonomics
SuperFreakonomics: Global Cooling (and some other stuff)?
Error Riddled Superfreakonomics
Superfreakonomics: Everything you know about Global Warming is wrong

Just started this book this afternoon. Very good so far.

this is a good book so far, im reading it now
