I've been trying to read more books this year, at the expense of TV and magazine subscriptions, and it's mostly worked. A couple of weeks ago I finished an awesome book: "The Big ShortImage may be NSFW.

" by Michael Lewis.
Lewis is also the author of the classic "Liar's PokerImage may be NSFW.

I don't want to ruin the book for anyone reading this blog. It explains some of the reasons for the recent financial crisis extremely well, and it's easy to read. Highly recommended.
