After much hype and anticipation, I read the book "Freakenomics". Unfortunately I didn't really find it as controversial and stunning as I thought it was going to be. Although I did find it pretty interesting and I learned some things about real estate agents, the KKK and naming children.
I don't think Im going to join a book club to discuss it, but in any case, that is book 16..........is it possible for anyone to reach 50, I'm beginning to wonder.
